People's perspective sees what they want to see.My House line is deeply entrenched with Indian Blood.My father's family, whom I did not know until two years ago, believed also that they were of pure European stock. Not true.And I have been digging daily since. When I first was presented with a photograph following of my grandparent's wedding in Clinton, Montana in June of 1916 I ask : who is that woman with the feather in her hair? No one down through the years had even noticed.It turned out that the woman was my grandmother's sister, daughter of James Alfred House from Illinois. James Alfred House lived on and near the Flathead Reservation.His property was on the Flathead Reservation until the government rescinded their mistake and opened up a big part of the Fathead Reservation to land sales. Gold and Silver had been found on the Flathead.When James Alfred Houses's property went on the auction block for land claims, by the government, he bid on his own land and got it.That is part of the Missoula Montana Land claim history. His property was on Wallace Creek just out of Clinton. And yes, there was gold and silver on his property.My great grandfather was a widower whose young wife had died at 25. He left Illinois with his four children and raised them in Montana. He never married again. His heritage is traced backwards to Delaware, home-land of the Leni-Lenapa Delaware. Barb ( or Earthfeather)
