You will need to establish the family line, first, using standard genealogical proceedures. There are tutorials online at various sites including familysearch.org and rootsweb.com. You probably will be able to establish the line in the US Census from 1930 back to 1790. If you subscribe to genealogy.com and ancestry.com for short periods, you can have access to ALL the censuses and their indexes. If you find any names in the Cherokee rolls that you would like to retrieve, I can get those for you for a fee per file ($30 for the first file and $15 per additional for Guion Miller Roll and Dawes Rolls applications).
Most women in the Cherokee Rolls with the name, Baker, will have shown the lineages of their maiden names, not their married names. The Eastern Cherokee Rolls (1817-1924) may also show your family names.
Further genealogical research will reveal earlier surnames in earlier generations which may be the source of the Indian blood and those should be checked against the various rolls. Cousins, siblings and other kin may have settled with the EC in NC or with western tribe in OK.
Good luck and good hunting!
