Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial and Argument Submitted to the Cherokee Commissioners, in the Claim of Nancy Reed and Children, Cherokee Indians of North Carolina: For the Value of a Reservation of Six Hundred and Forty Acres of Land By those treaties, Cherokees who desired reservations were required to file their applications therefor in the office of the Cherokee Agent. Prior to the conclusion of these treaties, your memorialist, a native Cherokee, had, agreeably to the custom of her tribe, become the wife of a white man by the name of William Reed, and by whom she had children, who, for her, and in her right, on the3d day of August, 1819, entered his name with the Cherokee Agent, for a reservation of six hundred and forty acres of land, which registration is in the following words and figures, to wit: (A) Register of persons who wish reservations under the treaty of July 8th, 1819. At the time of registering for a reservation, she owned improvements, and resided on the land reserved, within the boundary ceded by the treaty of 1819; and within the limits of the grant made by the State of North Carolina to the Cherokee Indians in 1783. On the 9th day of October, 1820, Robert Armstrong, the agent appointed by the government of the United States, to locate the reservations granted under said treaties, surveyed the reservation of your memorialist. (See plat and certificate marked B.) In the latter part of the same month, the State of North Carolina, in denial of their rights, sold, at public auction, the reservation, to her citizens, who took possession thereof under the State´s title.
