Native American genealogy research from the Piedmont of NC & VA
Searching for parents of Spencer Seago Stephens
He was born on the Trail of tears and orphaned as a young child.
He didnt know his exact birth date of year. He guessed it to be in 1838
Spencer wrote in his application for the final roll that he was the only child of Jess Stephens , a full blood Cherokee, and Melinda Roach.a white woman. His father Jess was suppose to have had two sisters, Mary Stephens and Lucy Stephens
I have no ideal what area they came from before the trail of Tears. He spent his live in Cherokee Nation, OK. As a small child her grew up in GoingSnake , IT,
Hoping that maybe someone has come across this line of Stephens in their search.
Welcome,
What was the disposition of his application?
Bill
I do not understand what you mean by disposition?
He is on the Dawes final roll in Cherokee Nation in Taliquah.
You wrote about “his application for the final roll” but not if the application was accepted or rejected, so I asked that question.
Yes he was accepted. He was 1/2 Cherokee. He is on the Dawes Final roll.
