Ancestry.com Introduces New American Indian Collection
Ancestry is home to the largest online collection of records relating to American Indians, including a wide selection dealing with the Five Civilized Tribes: the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Seminole. These groups lived throughout the southeastern United States, but during the 19th century, most were forced to move to Indian Territory, in present-day Oklahoma. Their history has been among the best documented of any group of American Indian tribes. Ancestry.com has added 11 new databases to their American Indian collections, and now have the most extensive online collection of American Indian records available, including U.S. Indian Census Rolls, 1885–1940. Even better, you can now search all of the American Indian records at once from the new American Indian page. Their new research guide will give you strategic pointers for getting your research underway, and AncestryDNA can help you investigate your Native American roots. Visit Ancestry.com and download your free research guide.
