Phyllis, Thanks so much for being so helpful. I got to go to the library there in Anderson one time about two years ago. I don't believe you were there because no one offered to be of assistance and when I asked about the family files I was referred to the location by pointing and the answer was they are over there. Keep up the good workl Micki in Florida << Most people don't know the background of Chief Anderson. I work in the Indiana Room of the Anderson Public and only know because we have a book entitled "Kik-the-we-nund" by Ruby Cranor a descendant of Chief Anderson. It is a very well documented book and I refer to it quite often. >>
