- Description:
- The document is from U.S. Senator Henry Bellmon to Jack Ellison, Director of the Bureau of Indian Affairs Muskogee Area office, regarding Timmie Sullivan, a Creek Indian who has been excluded from a per capita payment from the Creek Tribe. The document also mentions an issue regarding a will that Timmie's father had drawn up in 1919 or 1920, which allegedly transferred properties to Timmie but was not found at the time of his father's death. Bellmon requests Ellison's assistance in resolving these issues. The document also includes information about Timmie Sullivan's birth record, census records, and baptismal record.
