About Moore’s Seminole Roll and Land Guide

Moore’s Seminole Roll and Land Guide was published by J. Read Moore in 1915. This publication shows the location of land allotted to members of the Seminole Nation.

This database includes notations taken directly from the printed guide, which lists the names of allottees, their roll number, and if the allotment was the location of the homestead. Many individuals received allotments in more than one location. This database is a complement to the Dawes Rolls, which list individuals who were officially recognized as citizens of one of the Five Tribes.
