Try looking her up on the Dawes Rolls or Guion Miller Rolls under each of the possible surnames: maiden, married, and Indian name, as well as all the possible forms of the given name such as Lizzie, Eliza, Elizabeth, Liz.If you find anything that fits, then you can get the pertinent application and will have more details.The rolls also tend to run in family groups and can be cross-referenced to census numbers.Each tribe was listed seperately and some are not published except by application to the tribe, but you can get to indexes of the Cherokee online at www.ancestry.com, www.genealogy.com, or any number of other sites as well as in a good bookstore.Good luck.
