ELIZA TANKSLEY APPLICATION 40799
Short letter to commissioner in Washington DC:
Dear Sir
REplying to your referring to application 40799, will say that the
reason, if my ancestors were not enrolled was this: She being an
orphan girl named Womack who married a white man named Moore. So as
far as I know, she was a party to the treaty of 1835-46 and resided
in Rabun Co Ga, in 1835-51. None of my ancestors were ever slaves
and I pass as white.
Yours very truly,
/s/Eliza Tanksley
That is it for this one, but read on below something similiar.

I took some editorial leeway and separated the wording as it was
all bunched up. The wording is as is in the document. Withheld
by request until a later date.
