Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
For supplemental material about the Dawes Commission and the rolls, please review NARA’s Five Civilized Tribes: Dawes Records web pages.
For information about the Tribal Enrollment Process, please review the Department of Interior’s web pages at https://www.doi.gov/tribes/enrollment and search the Tribal Leader Directory. The Tribal Leaders Directory provides contact information for each federally recognized tribe. The electronic, map based, interactive directory also provides information about each BIA region and agency that provides services to a specific tribe. Additionally, the directory provides contact information for Indian Affairs leadership.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
