Willard Stone was Never a member or accepted as a Cherokee by Cherokee Nation

The story about Willard Stone being a Cherokee totally false. The Cherokee Nation never recognized him as a tribal member, citizen or perosn of Cherokee ancestry. He did however sue Cherokee Nation and lose his case against them.

Cherokee Nation says Willard Stone was not a tribal member here: https://www.google.com/#q=cherokee+heritage+center+facebook+willard+stone+was+born if you click the very first link. Proof he is not a Cherokee from Cherokee Nation! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ditlilosdodi (talk • contribs) 06:17, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
