Cherokee descent McKenzie family
Posted by: Jamie Mason (ID *****8542) Date: October 11, 2007 at 22:21:39

I'm trying to join the Cherokee Nation (you have to be 1/16 to qualify) and I need info on my grandmother. I've heard both she was 1/4 Cherokee or 1/8 and since one could make or break my acceptance, I have to be certain. If possible, I would need a link between me and someone on the Dawes Roll too. If someone could send me a copy of it, I'd be very grateful.
Here's how my family line goes for Cherokee:
Jamie Mason-Myself
Holly D. Summerlin-Mother (My father is William Hollis Mason. And in later years, Holly may be listed as Holly Ardis due to marriage to William C. Ardis)
Shirley Ann McKenzie-Grandmother (Married John Lewis Summerlin)
George W. McKenzie-Great-Grandfather (Married Edith Pendarvis, daughter of Charles Asbury Pendarvis and Minnie Pendarvis)
This is all I have right now. If it helps to know, the Pendarvis side of the family goes back to Joseph Pendarvis of Cornwall, England. If you need anymore info, please tell me. I'll post as much as I know.
