This is a starter page for a Chickasaw Nation Project. The Chickasaw were a member of "the Five Civilized Tribes that dominated the American Southeast.

Right now this project has two members, Allan Thomas Marc Snelling.

Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and could use your help.

  • Create a page with Chickasaw history, resources and timeline
  • Document Chickasaw descended surnames
  • Identify and add Chickasaw profiles on WikiTree

Hi Guys,

I have some links at the Sources-Oklahoma page that you may be able to use here.

Indian-Pioneer Papers (https://digital.libraries.ou.edu/whc/pioneer/) from Western History Collections, University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma, The Indian-Pioneer Papers is an oral history collection about the settling of Indian and Oklahoma Territories. The Indian-Pioneer Papers consist of 116 Volumes with about 80,000 interviews, conducted by government workers back in the 1930s. The interviews were transcribed and the index is searchable by name, place or subject; images are downloadable. Dates span from 1861 to 1936.

From the Western History Collections, University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma, the Duke Collection of American Indian Oral History (https://digital.libraries.ou.edu/whc/duke/) provides access to typescripts of interviews (1967 -1972) conducted with hundreds of Indians in Oklahoma regarding the histories and cultures of their respective nations and tribes. Related are accounts of Indian ceremonies, customs, social conditions, philosophies, and standards of living. Members of every tribe resident in Oklahoma were interviewed.

From the Western History Collections, University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma, Native American Manuscripts and other outstanding sources.

There are links to Indian Territory maps and a map of the proposed State of Sequoyah (1905) showing county divisions.
