I have some information concering Chief Shoe Boots and Clarinda Ellingtons children. They are William, Sarah (Sallie) and John Shoe Boots (Shu-Boots) Sally married a Stevens (Stephens) and her son William Stephens applied for citizenship w/ the Cherokee Nation CHM-58. Before the Cherokee Commission on Citizenship Fort Gibson, Cher Nation April 22nd 1879. Shows his mother's maiden name as Sarah Allenton, who was the daughter of Clarinda Allenton. They spelled it a few different ways. It says Clarinda was married to a well-known Cherokee named Shoe-Boots whos Indian name was well known in the War of 1812 w/ the Creeks and the U.S. When Clarinda left w/ their children Chulio (Shoe Boots) considered them dead, but when he was old himself, changed his words, concerned about the children. It says teh Claimant's own Uncle WIlliam Allenton, now living in Bosque Co. near Clifton Mills, Tx. was recognized as a Cherokee by the Old Settler Cherokees and drew Per Capita as such at their payment of 1851-2 for himself and family and to the record of such fact as well as to himself. refers his uncle (Claimants) being recognized as the son of Shu-Boots.
