AllottedLand.com — Find your family’s allotted land

Start here

One search builds the family research path.

Use the boxes below for whatever information the family has: names, spelling variants, roll or card numbers, tribe/Nation, allotment number, township/range/section, county, address, old town, cemetery, deed notes, tax-sale or sheriff-sale information, or family story.

The search will first build a step-by-step research path. Then it will show matching site records, official source leads, prepared official links, and request text you can copy for archives, county offices, BIA/LTRO, or land-record offices.

Need family names before you search? Start with FamilySearch to build a free family tree and gather names, spelling variants, relatives, dates, and places. Then come back to AllottedLand.com and search those names with any Dawes, allotment, county, or land information you find.
