Not entirely correct. The Dawes Roll was the Oklahoma Cherokee census. For Eastern Cherokee, it was the Guion Miller Roll. I’ve got nine related individuals named on that one.
I honestly think any individual with so-called Native blood according to some genetic test, equal to Elizabeth Warren’s .97%, should apply for admission to any university that has ever employed her under the false pretense of being Cherokee, apply as a Native American, then sue the pants off of them if denied admission.
She has claimed Oklahoma Cherokee blood. “The Cherokee Nation” may be used by all three branches, but the others must define themselves as Eastern Cherokee, and the other southeast band. The Cherokee Nation, does not recognize them as part of their nation, even though, in reality, they all came from the same base and area. Not sure why they won’t, but as I’m sure you know, it has been a bone of contention fora very long time. Probably the same as with the Loyal Shawnee vs the Eastern Shawnee and Absentee Shawnee. They know they’re all related, but have separate tribal governments.
