I am a researcher looking into Genevieve Big Goose.

You all should know that she needed permission to move from the Ponca Resrvation back to new York when she got married.

Thus there is a Bureau of Indian Affairs, Department of Interior, slip which gave her permission to leave the reservation permanently lists her as 7/8 Ponca (I thought she was full blood), but for your Suffern family, lists Stanley L. Suffern as, if I read it correctly, 1/2 Seneca. I don't recollect seeing anything about Seneca in your posts.

What I could use, is the marriage date, please.
