Volume VI of this series represents an additional 3,800 applications, bringing the total to nearly 22,000. Mr. Bowen culled every shred of genealogical value from the applications, which in every case provides the application number, applicantΓÇÖs name and city of residence, number of other persons in the applicantΓÇÖs family, references to family members found in other applications, and the disposition of the application. In some instances, Mr. Bowen has supplemented the core elements found in the abstracts with references to other family members by name, relationship(s), and dates of birth and/or death. The researcher will find references to over 5,000 Cherokee descendants in this fully indexed volume, bringing the total number of descendants in the six volumes to nearly 40,000.
