Surname/tag: Chickasaw
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
