I am looking for information on Allen Latty, born in Tennesee in 1823.
He migrated to the Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory, date unknown and
settled on a farm in the Canadian District, near the town of Webbers
Falls (Oklahoma), I.T.

He had three children: Joseph Latty, who married Louvenia Johnson, a
Cherokee, at the close of the Civil War. Joseph died in 1896 at the age
of 45. Mary Jane Latty married Jacob Tate and Lydia Latty married Reese
Hilderbrand, a Cherokee.

We have no records about Allen Latty's wife. He is on the 1860 census.
He also is listed as "colored", but to the Cherokees, this could mean
Oriental, Black or some other Indian tribe not listed as "civilized".

Any information would be appreciated.
