William Joseph Rushing (Joe Rushing in the Dawes Final Roll). Excerpts From Dawes Final Rolls
The Dawes Commission was organized in 1893 to accept applications for tribal enrollment
between 1899 and 1907 (some were added as late as 1914), mostly from Indians
who resided in the Indian Territory which later became the State of Oklahoma.
Tribal membership entitled qualified individuals to land allotments from the U.S.
Government. These enrollment records were eventually published as the Dawes Commision,
also known as The Five Civilized Tribes, which consisted of the Cherokee,
Choctaw, Chikasaw, Crow, Creek and Seminole Tribes.
