A Classic

Good geneological information, great photographs. This book provides great insight into Cherokee perspectives at the early half of the 20th century.

Genealogy research is excellent

For anyone looking for Cherokee family connections, this is a good place to start. The historical facts are not in chronological order, and can be confusing however.

A must have book for those researching their Cherokee roots.

This is an excellent refrence book for those researching their Cherokee ancestry. It contains the family pedigree's of the Old Settlers, e.g. those Cherokee's who arrived in Indian Territory (Oklahoma)prior to the Trail Tears including some who arrived later. A number of family histories are also included. Because Emmet Starr obtained most of his information from personal interviews with descendants, there are some errors, however the work is invaluable as a genealogy research tool.
