Parebts are William M. Hall and Mary E. Hall. On her marriage application dated 1907 (Kay Co., Oklahoma) it states she resides in Silverdale, Kansas. There is a story in the family that William and Mary Hall are not her real parents. That her family left her with them in Hominy, Oklahoma and went on. They never came back to get her.This family lived in Kansas and Oklahoma. I am trying to prove/disprove this story. I do not know where her 'real' family was going. There was always a rumor about her not being their real daughter. Minnie's daughter wrote my grandmother and told her that Minnie told her the above story. Minnie had seizures, so this could be the reason she was left behind. Also, after she married, she was living in Hominy, Oklahoma. Some Indian agents, tribe unknown, came to the house and told her she had land and rights. Her husband, ! Earnest Gregory (changed last name to Rhoads after marrying) ran them off. He often said if he had known she was a, derogatory word, he never would have married her. Because of her seizures, he called her Crazy. Can anyone help me? I have pic's and other info. Thanx! Sarah
