Application from the Bureau of Indian Affairs,
Muskogee, OK Under the act of 1896

State of Tennessee
County of Sevier

Affidavit
Personally appeared before me JP Price a Notary Public for said county & state, F. L. Emert age 77 years old, a resident of Emerts Cove, Sevier County Tennessee.

In the matter of application of citizenship in the Cherokee Nation of Indians who being duly sworn states as follows
I was acquainted with Isaac Husky Sr. some fifty or fifty five years ago. I had a conversation with him about his blood. His statements were that he was one fourth Cherokee Indian Blood. I have frequently conversed with some of his sons, Albert & William Huskey and perhaps others. They admitted that the statement made by their father was correct.

I also heard William Whaley about thirty or forty years ago. He stated that his wife's mother was one fourth Cherokee Indian Blood.

Isaac Sr. also stated to me that his Grand Parents were Millxxs.

I have been acquainted with the Huskey & Whaley for about sixty years. They do not deny the Indian Blood and my judgment is that from their appearance they are of the Indian Race of People or have Indian Blood in them.
