Jessie May's birth was reported to the Indian Territory authorities. It was important at that time to establish an individual's Native American identity. This was a very political affair, decided by the US government, through the Dawes Commission and other mechanisms, not by the Nations themselves. An affidavit was issued by her mother Minnie Lee Green Thompson declaring her birth and stating her citizenship. A problem occurred here, in that initially they were registered in Choctaw Nation, where they living. When Minnie was registered along with her mother, Fannie Colbert and the other children, they were living in Choctaw Nation, though they were Chickasaws. They were registered not as Chickasaw citizens living in Choctaw Nation, but as Choctaw citizens. This was corrected by Fannie in later registrations after they had moved to Chickasaw Nation. In this affidavit it is notable that initially they were correctly listed as citizens of Chickasaw Nation. Then "Chickasaw" was crossed through, and it was rewritten above as Choctaw in several places where citizenship is stated. Should we be surprised that errors of this type occur in papers required by and handled by Federal government employees and offices? -------------------- Department of the Interior Commission to the Five Civilized Tribes In Re: Application for enrollment as a citizen of the (Chickasaw - changed to) Choctaw Nation, of Jessie May Thompson, born on the 12th day of June 1899.

The following genealogy provides good information on John Mercer Thompson and his wife Mary Jane Looney. I am uncertain about the place of marriage. There may be an error here due to an entry confusion between the town of St Clair in Franklin County, in eastern Missouri, while St Clair County, where they lived and she died, is in western Missouri. I suspect they were married in St Clair County, not Franklin County.

"Far left tombstone of John William Thompson (husband of Minnie Lee Green Thompson Jones). Middle tombstone of Francis Colbert East (mother of Minnie Lee Green Thompson Jones). Far right presumed tombstone of 2nd husband Claude Jones. The name and dates are hand scribed and very faint but at the time I could make out the name Jones and maybe what looked like a "C". The date has to be before 1935-36 as Minnie moved west to Calif around that time.

Julia's maiden name may be spelled Tompson. The maiden name was reported by the McPherson family. The middle initial was discovered in the 1880 census. There was a difference in the birth year of Julia, with the family reporting 1840, but the census giving her age as 32, which would yield a birth year of about 1847 from a June 1880 census.

I have listed the wife of Floyd A Stewart as Letitia, because this is how she is reported in most censuses I have found. This is the standard spelling of this name. In 910, she is listed as Martine C Stewart, in 1920 as Letticia C Stewart, and in 1930 as Letitia C Stewart. Letitia's husband's WWI registration gives us her middle name.

"Robert Kyle Briscoe -- Robert was a doctor. He is my 3rd great grandpa. His wife Nancy died young and was buried in Missouri in a cemetery by the Arkansas line. He was so upset from losing her. He was a doctor in the civil war. He later married Mary Ann Cox. They both are buried in the Orr Cemetery in Orr, Oklahoma, a small town by Healdton, Oklahoma. I have pictures of their grave site. I'm surprises that you found Isaac Briscoe's dad's name. Me and others have searched and searched for it." -- Mary Burke, Geneanet messaging to Orville bOyd Jenkins, 8 February 2020
