Creek-OK http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ifetch2?/u1/data/ok+index+15671107324486+f By the time of the making of the Dawes Roll of the Creek Nation in April of 1899, John and Bettie McCaughan's daughter, Mamie, had died and John and Bettie had two more children born in Indian Territory, a son Baxter and a daughter Ninon. The child Baxter died before 1 April 1899. Bettie McCaughan and her three living children, Tom, Nellie and Ninon, are on the Final Rolls of the Creek Nation and when the Creek Nation's land was divided up before Oklahoma Statehood, they each received one hundred and sixty acres of land. Following is the Creek Census Card of Betty McCaughan and her children: Dawes Name age sex DIB Father Mother No. Card No. 926 P.O. Checotah 9 Oct 1899 2999 McCaughan, L Elizabeth 40 F 1/8 Ellis Bridges Elizabeth 3000 Thomas son 13 M 1/16 John McCaughan No. 1 3001 Nellie dau 10 F 1/16 John McCaughan No. 1 3002 Ninon dau 1 F 1/16 John McCaughan No. 1 Bettie McCaughan's land, and Tom's and Nellie's land was in Eufaula and Ninon's land was in Hitchita, Oklahoma. John and Bettie (Bridges) McCaughan's children: 1. Nora McCaughan was born in Wills Point, Texas, 18 July 1880. Nora died 23 October 188?. The year of Nora's death, in Bettie McCaughan's Bible, is faded, but I believe it is 1889. If so, Nora McCaughan died after John and Bettie McCaughan had moved to Indian Territory and she was buried there, probably in the Checotah area. There is no grave stone for her in Wills Point, Texas, as there is for her sisters who died there, so I am sure she died after John and Bettie left Wills Point, Texas. 2. Cora McCaughan was born in Wills Point, Texas, 23 July 1882. Cora died in Wills Point, 21 January 1883. Cora was buried in the Rocky Point Cemetery at Wills Point. 3. Elsie McCaughan was born in Wills Point, Texas, 7 December 1883. Elsie died in Wills Point, 5 July 1884. Elsie was buried next to her sister, Cora, in the Rocky Point Cemetery at Wills Point. There is a double, upstanding grave stone, in the Rocky Point Cemetery, for these two little girls of John and Bettie McCaughan. The inscription reads: ELSIE CORA BORN BORN DEC. 7, 1883 JULY 23, 1882 11

DIED DIED JULY 5, 1884 JAN. 21, 1883 DAUGHTERS OF J. & L. E. MCCAUGHAN "THO LOST TO SIGHT TO MEMORY DEAR" 4. Thomas McCaughan was born in Greenville, Texas, 10 December 1885. I know very little about Tom. I don't know who he married or how many children he had, or if he had more than one child. Tom and his family lived in Checotah, Oklahoma, for a number of years. Thomas McCaughan's daughter: A. Mildred McCaughan was born in Checotah, Oklahoma. Mildred married a man by the name of Dunagan and she was widowed by 1981. Mildred (McCaughan) Dunagan was living in Paris, Texas, in 1981. Mildred and her husband had some daughters, but I know nothing more about them. Thomas McCaughan was bedridden the last few years of his life and lived with Mildred and her husband in Paris, Texas. Thomas McCaughan died in Paris, Texas, 12 January 1966. I don't know where he is buried. 5. Nellie McCaughan was born in Checotah, Indian Territory, 10 January 1889. Nellie grew up in Checotah and Tuskahoma, Indian Territory. Nellie McCaughan married Milton Bruce in 1808 or 1809, I believe in Tuskahoma, Oklahoma. After their marriage, Milt and Nellie Bruce lived in Tuskahoma, then in Checotah, Oklahoma. Milt and Nellie Bruce moved to Bakersfield, California, where Nellie (McCaughan) died 3 December 1956. She is buried in the Green Lawn Cemetery. I believe Milt and Nell had more than one child, but I know of only the one daughter. A. Lola Bruce was born in Checotah, Oklahoma, in February 1910. Lola married Ben McGullivary. Lola died 16 February 1981 and is buried at the Tuskahoma Cemetery. 6. Mamie McCaughan was born in Checotah, Indian Territory, about 1891. Mamie died in Checotah, Indian Territory, between August 1896 and 1 April 1899. Mamie wasn't listed in Bettie McCaughan's Bible, but she is on the Creek Indian papers and had died by the time of the making up of the Creek Dawes Rolls, 1 April 1899. 7. Baxter McCaughan was born in Checotah, Indian Territory, 18 August 1897. Baxter McCaughan was named for Bettie (Bridges) McCaughan's grandfather, Baxter Self, father of Bettie's mother, Elizabeth (Self) Bridges. Baxter McCaughan died in Checotah, Indian Territory, when he was eleven months old, 20 July 1898. 8. Ninon McCaughan was born in Checotah, Indian Territory, 17 August 1899. Ninon grew up in Checotah and attended a little country school four miles from Checotah. When she was older, Ninon attended school in Checotah. Sometime before 1913, Ninon's parents moved to Tuskahoma, Oklahoma. Ninon McCaughan, first, married George A. Cooper in Tuskahoma, Oklahoma, 1 August 1916.
