U. S. Deputy Marshals 1893-1896
Index to the book by the same name compiled by Walter Heck Penquite, copyright 1997 and published by Muskogee County Genealogical Society.
INTRODUCTION from the Book
The following pages are from the National Archives concerning the U.S. Deputies in Indian and Oklahoma Territory. The notes contain the name of the deputy, his dates of service and the judicial district in which he served.
The information was extracted from loose papers in the National Archives, Washington, D.C. They advised that records relating to U.S. Deputy Marshals are very sparse. The reports are not complete and do not include narrative reports of the activities of a particular deputy nor any genealogical data. It does indicate, however, that these people did serve as deputy marshals. The best source for finding additional information would be through a newspaper.
U.S. Deputy Marshals were fee employees of the U.S. Marshals. They were hired on an “as needed” basis and paid for specific services rendered. There are 1514 names in this booklet, some names are repeated under different headings and you may find some dates prior to 1893.
The Archives could give no explanation for the meaning of the file and account numbers
