Thanks to Rhonda Clover for sending me this.
Oklahoma has had individual land ownership for a little over a century. It began in 1902 in the Indian Territory with the allotment of lands by the Dawes Commission. Prior to that time, land in the Indian Territory was communal property, and belonged to the respective Indian nation in which an individual lived. In Oklahoma Territory, with the exception of Indian allotments by the Jerome Commission in the late 1880s, ownership began in 1889, and spread with each of the land openings. The last land opening in Oklahoma Territory, with the minor exception of the salt plains in Alfalfa County, was in 1906. Land ownership in the Panhandle was possible after the first official survey was done for the area in the 1890s.
Oklahoma statehood occurred November 16, 1907, by joining Oklahoma Territory and the Indian Territory. The newest county in Oklahoma was formed in 1912.
In 1890, Oklahoma Territory consisted of Logan, Oklahoma, Cleveland, Canadian, Kingfisher, Payne and Beaver Counties. At that time, Beaver County consisted of the entire Oklahoma Panhandle.

Note that according to this site, the marriage index for Tulsa County, Oklahoma after 1907 has been closed. This is happening all over the country. This is one reason I am trying desperately to collect and publish all the index entries available. I was told by a correspondent that these dates are the dates of the applications, not the actual marriage dates.

THE CHEROKEE ADVOCATE
Second Series, Vol. 1, No. 1, April 26, 1870--Vol. 5, No. 36, January 30, 1875
Third Series, Vol. 1, No. 1, March 1, 1876-March 19, 1879
Index by James W. Parins and Daniel F. Littlefield, Jr.
Formatting and editing by Thomas Murray
The Cherokee Advocate was published by the Cherokee Nation from 1844 until 1906. When publication began at Tahlequah, Cherokee Nation, on September 26, 1844, the Advocate, like its predecessor the Cherokee Phoenix, was the only tribally owned and published newspaper in the country. Authorized by an act of the Cherokee national council on October 25, 1843, it proposed to publish in both English and Cherokee useful information for its Cherokee readers and accurate information regarding the Cherokees for its readers in the United States. The Cherokee Advocate served the Cherokee people until the Cherokee Nation was dissolved in 1906.
The first series was published from 1844 until September 28, 1853, when the newspaper was suspended for lack of funds. During that period it was edited by William P. Ross (1844-1846), Daniel H. Ross (1846-1847), William P. Ross (1847-1848), Daniel H. Ross (1848), James Shepherd Vann (1848-1849, 1851-1852, 1853), David Carter (1849-1851), and William P. Boudinot (1852-1853). These editors informed the people of their government's actions and policies--new laws, memorials and protests presented to Congress, proceedings of the national council, messages of the principal chief, lists of stray property, and administration papers for estates. They also reported news from the Cherokee Nation, the rest of Indian Territory, and the United States.
The newspaper was not revived in a second series until April 26, 1870, and ran until February 1875, when the printing office of the Advocate burned, destroying all of the type and equipment. During this period it was edited by William P. Boudinot (1870-1873) and John Lynch Adair (1873-1875).
The newspaper was revived in a third series on March 1, 1876, and continued publication until 1906. It was edited from 1876 to 1879 by William P. Boudinot (1876-1877) and George W. Johnson (1877-1879). These editors produced 154 issues of which only eight are not represented in this index.

Truth about gold bars still a good mystery
By Phil Brown, Commentary (Brown is a former managing editor of the Enid Morning News)
Brad Clover, of Enid, has some evidence a major operation was under way in the late 1930s or maybe early ’40s to locate 14 gold bars said to have been buried in the vicinity of the dam at the Great Salt Plains Lake 158 years ago by five men engaged in what must have been a running fight with a band of hostile Cheyenne-Arapaho Indians.
Some versions of the story, which I related in an earlier column, tell about efforts to locate the bars in later years. Apparently they were never found. Clover has a photo of the search operations that were under way. The photo is small and was taken from a distance, and is dark. It appears to have been taken with a box camera. Clover got it from his mother.
Close examination of the picture does show what appears to be a major drilling project with a small rig. There also appears to be a drilling pit around the rig. One version of the story says Carl Sheldon, one of the survivors of the Indian raid, returned in 1901 to retrieve the treasure, but didn’t find it. Associates of his continued the search into the 1940s.
Clover’s photo is apparently of the people who were still looking in the 1930s, but who did not find it either. At least we guess they didn’t find it. There is no evidence they did. If they had found the gold it would have been difficult to keep it a secret. Trying to dispose of 14 gold bars would have attracted a lot of attention. They had to abandon the hunt because of construction on the dam that created Great Salt Plains Lake.
But it’s apparent in the small photo this was not just a couple of guys with a treasure map and an auger poking holes in the ground at random. It was a sophisticated drilling outfit, and they must have believed the gold — wrapped in a buffalo hide — was down there somewhere.
I’ve never heard positively where the gold came from in the first place. I speculated because of the date — 1850 — the five guys got lucky in the 1849 California gold rush and were returning home to Missouri with their earnings when they bumped into the Indians, but that is just a guess. Somebody believed the gold was really down there in the shifting sands of Great Salt Plains, because they were still poking around trying to find it 90 years after the Indian attack.
There is more than one mystery here. Why did Sheldon wait 50 years to come looking for it? Did the other guy who escaped with him come back alone and retrieve the gold — or most of it? And, where did the gold really come from? Was it stolen?
There must surely be some kind of modern technology — maybe some kind of fancy radar that can look down through the water, the fish and the mud and see if there are 14 gold bars down there somewhere near the dam. Anything as dense as gold should be easily detected by radar, right?
Of course I don’t know what the 14 gold bars weighed, so I can’t really say what they would be worth at today’s inflated prices. If we (you and me) want to assume the 14 bars weighed about 400 pounds, that would be 6,400 ounces, and on the futures market gold is being quoted at about $881 an ounce — that means the gold bars might be worth about $5.6 million.
By today’s standards that is not a huge fortune, but there is just something about buried treasure and Indians, and of course everyone loves a good mystery.
The following is supposed to refer to John Hiram Clover, born 28 June 1853, died 30 October 1822, Dewey, Oklahoma. He was born Monroe County, Illinois, the son of James Monroe Clover.

John Clover, J. Rash and John Enlish were injured on Thursday night when a team driven by Mr. Rash ran away. The wagon was loaded with lumber and the tree men were sitting on the lumber. Some part of the harness broke and startled the horses which bolted and threw the men into the street on 12th and Wyandotte, Dewey. Dr. Van Sant was called and took the men to his office for treatment. The team was caught further down the street after they had upset a buggy containing a women and a child, who were not injured and refused to give their names.

Most of the Clovers with Native American blood lived in Arkansas and later Oklahoma. However, they were out of the Mississippi Choctaw group. Since the records cover several states, I have put them all on the Native American page on the following page.
