3079. Andrew J. Alford. "My name is Andrew J. Alford; my post-office is
Crowder, City, Okla. I was born in Pike Co., Arkansas in 1842; I claim
relationship to the Cherokee Indians through my mother, whose maiden name
was Nancy Orrick who was one-eighth; she was born in Alabama in either
Cherokee or Jackson County; I do not know what year; my mother claim(ed)
through her mother, whose maiden name was Celia Strickland; my people
moved from Alabama to Arkansas ... my parents did not come west with the
Indians; I do not know of any enrollment of my people, although I remember
when a boy my grandfather sending in the name of Strickland to be enrolled
as a Cherokee Indian; we never received any money or land from the
government." (Signed) Andrew (x) J. Alford, McAlester, Okla., Sep. 5, 1908.
