During my reunion, I found out that I am 25% Cherokee Indian. My birthmother is originally from Georgia, and she is half Cherokee. Even though I am only a quarter Cherokee, I am most interested in finding out more about my heritage. Does anyone know how to contact the Cherokee tribe? Would they provide information to me or let me "join"? Thank you, Tina

Try this site. Official Site of the Cherokee Nation based in Tahlequah Oklahoma - [url]http://www.cherokee.org/[/url] I am also 1/4 Cherokee and have done alot of research on how to be registered. You must prove that someone in you family line was also registered with the tribe. Good luck,

My birth mother's name is Judy Davis. I was told she had two daughters through another man who wasnt my father. One of the daughters was named Trianna or Teanna or something simaliar sounding to your name. Apparantly, I also have aunt named Brenda who is living in Goergia. My mother was one of many siblings, all who went into foster care when their father died. I'v been searching for my sisters for years, but without any names, dates or even the name of my birthmother's parents there isnt alot I can do. Im also about a half cherokee. It would be nice to have a family. Please reply or contact me

I was adopted and my bmom is 3/4 Cherokee and herself registerd. I ahd to petition the courts to get my orginal birth certificate, adoption papers and a copy of my bmoms CIB card to register in the cherokee nation. You can use the ICWA to open your adoption papers if you are native american because the law protects native american childen and those adopted their rights to tribal membership. (federal law)If you contact the Cherokee nation they will send you the application for enrolment and answer all your questions, good luck. Little d
