My grandmother was Amelia (Creek) Branson. She was the second wife of Thomas J. though I find no records showing this. I can't even find a record of her burial, though I am certain that she is burried in the Brookline Station cemetery. My father told me she was half Sioux indian. I have 2 brothers Paul Ervin and Lamar Dean and a deceased sister Avedell Maxine. To my knowledge we are the only children of Otis. My parents divorced when I was a 9 and he moved to California and we live in Northern Indiana. If you want more information please contact me. PS: If you have any information at all on my grandmother I would be obliged to know of it. Thanks for the message.
