Horne

Edward J. Horne, Choctaw

Edward J. Horne and his family applied for Choctaw Nation citizenship by blood in 1896, citing descent from Davis Logan, a full-blood Choctaw. The Choctaw council initially approved their enrollment in 1892, but procedural issues delayed finalization. The Dawes Commission denied their application in 1896, but the U.S. court ruled in their favor in 1897. However, in 1902, the Citizenship Court vacated this ruling and later denied their enrollment in 1904, despite extensive evidence of Choctaw ancestry. Subsequent applications for their descendants were also rejected, leaving the family excluded from tribal citizenship despite earlier recognition.
