What follows is a listing of the biographies featured in the Choctaw section of the book “Leaders and Leading Men of the Indian Territory” by H. F. O’Beirne.
My hope is this information will be of help to others. The book is no longer in print and obtaining a copy can be very expensive, if you can find one. I was fortunate to obtain a copy many years ago as a reprint.
I apologize that the names are not in alphabetical order. However, you can do a search by pressing ”Ctl-F” to have the search box appear and then just type the last name that you want to find.
Remember that just because the name and biography are in the Choctaw section DOES NOT mean that person is Choctaw or for that matter of Native American Heritage. In fact, while typing this list I did notice that several people were listed as Cherokee and Chickasaw.
I will post the Chickasaw list in the near future. Good luck with your search!
