Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The link below will take you to many cherokee census records. Don't be surprised when you find them listed as mulattos and blacks.

The American government announced to the world that the American Indian was extinct and proved it by eliminating American Indian as an ethnic option. Therefore during that period of American History all Indians were listed as black or mulatto.
