Description

This document, dated May 13, 1955, and filed by Laura Cottonwood is a "petition for rehearing" in the case of the probate of the estate of Owl Woman, a deceased member of the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Forth Berthold Reservation and allottee number 358. The document summarizes the decision executed by the North Dakota Examiner of Inheritance. The document states that Cottonwood filed for rehearing with the Superintendent of the Forth Berthold Agency claiming to be an heir on September 10, 1954. The document denies Cottonwood's claim, noting that none of the estate descends collaterally through Owl Woman's sister, who Cottonwood has claimed relation to.
