How would you register your Cherokee history?
With most Native-American tribes, just check with the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Check and see if they have a 1-800 number, or 'google' "the bureau of Indian affairs" or "Cherokee".

Please note: Some tribes remove females from tribal roles if they marry outside the tribe. Again, you will have to check with her tribal services offices to find this answer.

Limited liability corporations cannot sell stock because the ownership is nontransferable. There would also be some major issues with the property....if you dig deep enough I'm certain you would find prohibitive verbiage about selling stock to non-Indian shareholders based on the trust setup.
