Sec. 184. Rights of children born of marriages between white men
and Indian women
All children born of a marriage solemnized prior to June 7, 1897,
between a white man and an Indian woman by blood and not by adoption,
where said Indian woman was on that date, or was at the time of her
death, recognized by the tribe, shall have the same rights and
privileges to the property of the tribe to which the mother belongs, or
belonged at the time of her death, by blood, as any other member of the
tribe, and no prior Act of Congress shall be construed as to debar such
child of such right.
