About the author
Born in 1845 and deceased in 1923, Charles C. Royce is remembered as an American writer and researcher whose work is closely tied to the study of Native American land cessions and treaty history.
His best-known publications include The Cherokee Nation of Indians and Indian Land Cessions in the United States, both of which are widely cataloged by major library and archival sources. These works helped preserve historical records that later readers, scholars, and institutions continued to consult.
Reliable biographical detail about his personal life is limited in the sources I could confirm here, so it is safest to describe him primarily through his published work: a careful compiler of historical material whose books remain associated with the Bureau of American Ethnology and with the documentary history of Indigenous land relations in the United States.
