Creek Indians in WW II In the Government Documents Dept. of the Florida State University Libraries (Tallahassee, FL), there is a run of Indians at Work, a periodical which was published by the U. S. Office of Indian Affairs [SuDoc no. I20.22:]. The library's holdings (which are not quite complete) start with January 1942 and extend to May-June 1945. There is also a copy of a pamphlet, Indians in the War which was published in November 1945 by the same agency [SuDoc no. I20.5: In2/14]. I was going to list these two titles in the Creek Indian Bibliography, but since many people would not have easy access to these items, I have decided to list all mentions of individuals identified as Creek here on this page. www.rhus.com/ww2.html

Indian Scout Pension Files, 1939 - 1949 The three page Indian Scout Pension Application Statement of Don Juan has been digitized from this series. This series includes the files of about 100 other people who applied for a pension after having served thirty days "in any Indian war or campaign, or ... in the zone of active Indian hostilities from January 1, 1817, to December 31, 1898." Files typically include an application and depositions attesting to the men's service as scouts for the U.S. Army. Some applications were submitted by widows, based on their deceased husband's service. These materials are held by NARA's Pacific Region (Laguna Niguel, CA). After you get to the page down in the lower right hand corner a box will appear click on it and this page will enlarge.
