Eastern Carol ina
T uscarora Nation
to Re?Enroll All
Members
\ .
BYiiikmDmm
The Eastern Carolina Tuscarorm Nation will begin to re
enroll all former members as well as anyone who would
like to become a member. The enrollment process begins
Friday night, Fbb. 1, 1991 at 7:30 p.m. and will continue
every Friday until March 3,1991 in the Nation's meeting
house, located between Island Grove Church on Highway
710 and the Old Red Springs-Maxton Road (State Road
1803) on the Nation's Sovereign Territory.
Each individual who is being re- enrolled or enrolled
will receive not only an enrollment number on their card
but also a clan number. They will receive a clan number
through a geneological process which traces them hack to
one of the seven Tuscarora Clans: Bear, Wolf, Turtle,
Deer, Beaver, Snipe, and Eel.
The Eastern Carolina Tuscarora Nation through the
"'Great Law of Ptoaee" which is the official Law of the
Nation and through the "Longhouse" which has now
been built and established on the Sovereign Territory is
.recalling all former enrollment cards. These cards are the
ones which were certified by the Six Nations in New York
and Canada back in the 70's. Everyone who has one of
these cards and fails to come in and re-enroll will have
their cards void and their names removed from the
enrollment book.
This new system will clarify the confusion that exists in
North Caoriina on who represents the Tuscarora Nation in
dealing with the Six Nations and the foreign governments
of the United States and Canada. *
The Eastern Carolina Tuscarora Nation will be using a
^screening system to screen each individual who comes in
to enrol or re-enroll and the Natioo has the right U> reject
or aeeept Hjame wkn is enroling.
The time limit for re-enrolling or enrolling will be 30
days from Feb. 1,1991 and ending March 3, 1991. Those
who live out of state and are unable to come in to re enroll
or enroll can come in at a later time with proof of out of
state residency status.

Lieutenant Miller has been given the freedom to leant and
experience many budget affairs duties. "I really appreci
ate Mrs. Ray for giving me the freedom to do things on my
own. Never has she perched over my shoulder to see what
I'm doing. She givea me a job, allows me to do it and then
is there to answer questions or help if problems arise. 1
couldn't have asked far a better mentor to leech me. *

brayboy
embarks
on career in
hollywood
Cory Diuyboy
Hollywood, CA--Lights! Camera! Action! That's the
sound now being heard by Cary Brayboy as he embarks
upon is new career in "Tinsel Town." Shortly after
becoming a centerfold for an all-male calendar for The
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Brayboy
accepted rales in such plays as "The Skin of Our Teeth"
where he played Judge Mooes; and in "The Tempest"
where he performed as Adrien. He says it was after these
experiences on stage at the University Theatre that the
"Acting" bug bit him.
The tall, young Lumber Indian with ties to Robeson
County, NC was encouraged to pursue acting as a
profession.
The doors to the stage began to open as Brayboy
accepted various roles in television shows, including his
daytime debut on "The Bold and Beautiful."
"I'm very excited about my new upcoming role in the
movie " Hot Shots" with Michael Sheen." he commented
in a recent interview. "This is major movie in which I will
play a key role as a gang member.
Brayboy says he feels he has an advantage in
Hollywood because of his age. "Most young acton vying
for these roles are 26 to 27 years old, and I" m only 21. The
age advantage gives me time to polish my acting skills."
To do just that, Brayboy is studying under such
teachers as Jeff Corey andAI Ruscio.
Brayboy is the son of Bobby D. Brayboy and Mary
Elisabeth Brayboy of Alexandria. VA. He is the grandson
of Eva H. Brayboy and the late Tscumash B. Brayboy. Jr.
of Pembroke. NC. He is also the grandson of the late
MCKinlev and Zelma Jones of the Wakulla area.
