In 1890, the United States issued a payment to the Creek Nation and they took 
a roll of the Creeks living in the Nation. This roll was later used by the 
Citizenship Commission to make up the Creek Census Cards. The notation "DEAD" 
was written in at that time, on all who had died between the time the roll was 
taken and 1 April 1899. Following are children and grandchildren of Benjamin 
and Eliza (Berryhill) Posey who were on this roll:

This is an unpublished manuscript done by Thelma Nolen Cornfeld before
her death in 1996. Her daughter Barbara gave me permission to put her
