Danny,

Thanks for your reply. No, he was not Indian, although his wife (Jennie Porter Lenox) claimed to be three-quarters Choctaw and she did, after Thomas G's death, marry a full-blood Creek at Stone Bluff, OK around 1920. I suspect that the posting of Thomas G Lenox with the Indian Home Guard is a mixup: either on the part of someone at the National Archives or the particular abstractor at the link I listed in my prior message. After posting the message, I did access what purports to be 4,000 names of Indian Home Guard troops, and I could not find a Thomas G. Lenox. As I recall, the link I posted also has an "Albert Lenox (one "N"), and he, too, I think is missing from the 4,000-name database. Basically, I think all Thomas G's and Jennie's Indian and Indian Territory connections fooled someone!
