I am looking for more info on my 3rd great grandmother, Amanda Lou Moore who married James Summers. She was the daughter of John Moore and Mary Jane Adcock. If you know anything please contact me at devinpipes@yahoo.com or call 817-504-9656. Here is a bad picture of Mary Jane Adcock, (Thompson) when she died.
Thanks,
Devin Pipes

unfortunately, you have not named a location, given any years they were alive, named some spouses. you have given no dates of death. these are common surnames, so you have to give more information rather than less. if you post about women, it is helpful to include their maiden name and married name and designate which one is the maiden name.
this might be amanda summers with a son john.

mother was mary thompson., probably mother of maggie too.
but i can’t be sure, since there are other people with these names in oklahoma at this time.
first of all, heritage and tribal enrollment are two different things. many times natives didn’t apply for enrollment because 1) they didn’t qualify, 2) they were philosophically opposed to enrollment, 3) they didn’t have documentation, or 4) they were mississippi choctaw and their ancestor had accepted land or benefits in lieu of tribal enrollmment. the dawes roll was taken 1896-1906, so you should trace your ancestors down to that time period. mostly, they had to be living in oklahoma by that time and agree to live there permanently.
since the name is so common, i am finding too many possible records.the tribe has an excellent information to help you. it is found under genealogy advocacy.
