Am hoping to connect with African-American DREW descendants whose ancestors were enrolled (some were rejected) as Cherokee Freedman by the Dawes Commission in Indian Territory (now Oklahoma), 1898-1907.
Freedmen were ex-slaves of Cherokee citizens.
One example is the descendants of Pollard & Katie DREW and associated surnames:
Known Children-Application #-Spouse-Spouse’s Parents:
Lucy, 443 m. Fox GRASS
Ellen, 436 m.-----------GRASS
Rachel, 434, m. Lewis GUNTER, Jeff GUNTER-Lizzie CROSSLAND
Jennie, 418, m. Isaac BENGE, Maximan & Darkey
Benjamin, 471
James, 439
Moses, 641
Thomas, 516, m. Ruth VANN, Caleb & Sallie
From the 1900 Census-Indian Territory-Cherokee Nation-Flint Twshp-ED 47-Sheet 29A:
Drew, Thomas 45
Ruth 40
Nip son apr 1888
Sally dau jan 1890
Geno son mar 1895

Your ancestor would have been living, continuously, in Indian Territory from about 1867 to 1907.
Hurry up now.
