In This Issue - Black Indians **********************************
Photo - William Loren Katz "Black Indians" a hidden heritage. ********************************** Black Indians in History ********************************** Thousands of Americans have Black and Indian ancestry. Many of the Freedmen of Indian Territory--now Oklahoma, who were the former slaves and free persons of color joined the Five Civilized Tribes. The Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek and Seminole Nations, genealogists will find records documenting the history of African people living within the Indian nations. Several census counts were taken between 1866 and 1907, specifically of the "persons of color" in Indian Territory. The Black Siminoles ********************************** Almost all of the slaves who sought the protection of the Seminoles in Florida also left with them for Oklahoma. Many of the descendants of the Black Siminoles are there today, organized as "Freedmen's Bands."
