1 REFIN4
Mississippi Choctaw records on the civilized tribes Dawes card file # 1 022516 (also see file # 1439897 and 1439898 file 1297 - 1451 28 cases) and film # 1022517 is the Indian files of the grandchildren of Isaiah Ivey when he lived in Wayne Co. and Clark Co. Mississippi. His Indian name was Little Bear and he was listed as 1/2 Choctaw. The members of the Ivy family were rejected because of the lack of information on Isaiah membership in the tribe and filing under the 14th section of the 1830 Dancing Rabbit Treaty.

For our family records it is documented in my files that both Megrirt and Susan Ivey are the children of Isaiah Ivey. I have in my possession 3 papers published records stating that Megrirt is a brother to the children of Isaiah Ivey. Because these records show Mary to be the mother of all the children and these children are of a difference of 32 years, it might be supposed that not all of the children are the children of Mary. But there is no document showing the marriage of Isaiah and Mary, nor other record that show that Mary is not the mother of all the children, because many records in the southern states are still not available and many were lost or destroyed in the Civil War and other wars, we can only document these records as available and makes research very difficult to fit a family together with proff.

For information on Isaiah Ivey and family contact Ann Walla CE 537 Misty Ridge Lane, Weatherford, TX. 76086, for a book on this line. Duan E. Johnson also has documented thousands of Ivy, Ivie, Ivey of the U.S. R.J. LaRose
