The only time I find my great-grandmother is when she married my great-grandfather (Galamore) in 1878, Haralson County Georgia. My great-grandmother's name Rebeka Elizabeth Haney dob 1856 dod 1927

Answer 1

Hey leneeda13,

I assume you mean Creek - native american Indian, see the first web site. You may find some Vital Records in Haralson County Georgia. See the next site.

I tried LDS Family Search, no information there on her, but there is on Galamore. 278 search hits, that you should work through. Then I posted some other vital record sites.

These should get you started. Best of luck.

Answer 2

do your genealogy first start with you and work back if you every want to prove you are Indian of any tribe you have to be on the roll and to be on the roll of a tribe you have to have an ancestor who was a member when the tribe was accepting members and the creek nation is in Oklahoma and if your ancestors wasn't in Oklahoma between 1899 and 1907 then they aren't on the Oklahoma creek tribal roll they may be on a roll from another state the creeks emigration took place between 1827 and 1838 you know "The Trail of Tears" do your genealogy and do a little history and maybe you can find so information about your family
