This
modified form of Schedule No 1 is to be used in making the enumertion
of Indians, both those on the reservations and those living in family
groups outside of reservations.
Detached Indians living either in white or negro families outside of
reservations sould be enumerted on the general populaton schedule (Form
7-224) as members of the families in which they are found: but
detached whites or negroes living in Indian families should be
enumerated on this schedule as members of the Indian families in which
they are found. In other words, every family composed mainly of
Indians should be reported entirely on this schedule and every family
composed mainly of person not Indian should be reported entirely on the
general population schedule.

Of the Magoffin County Melungeons, a friend from Gifford,
Kentucky, writes that "All of the old timers here are of the opinion
that the first Gipsons came to Magoffin County from Virginia in the
early 1800's. My Dad (who is 82) said he remembers his grandfather
saying that was where they came from. There are about two hundred in
the county today [i.e., ca. 1975], I would guess. The most prominent
family name is Gipson
and then there are the Coles,
Mullinses, Fletchers, and Nicholses. All of them are
usually referred to locally as "Gipsons" rather than Melungeons. They
are still a very dark and handsome people"

Early in 1905 (some say 1906) at least forty-two families mostly
in Morgan and Magoffin Counties of eastern Kentucky sold their land,
packed a few household items and personal goods, loaded into wagons,
and went to the nearest train station. They chartered the entire train
and went west to Ardmore in the Chickasaw nation of Indian Territory.
