Does anyone know the identity of Norman D. Nevills, subject of the following? In the House of Stone and Light / A Human History of the Grand Canyon by J. Donald Hughes, Univ. of Denver, pub. 1978 by Grand Canyon Natural History Assn. pp. 114 & 115: "Boat trips down the Colorado River became more numerous, and commercial river runners made their appearance. First of these was NORMAN D. NEVILLS, who completed his first traverse in 1938, using a wider version of the Galloway-Stone cataract boats. With him were the first women to make the trip, botanist Elzada U. Clover and Lois Jotter. NEVILLS founded "NEVILLS' EXPEDITIONS," and boated the Grand Canyon almost yearly until his death in an airplane crash in 1949. Among NEVILLS' passengers was Barry Goldwater, who made his first trip in 1940. Another "river rat," as they liked to call themselves, was Katie Lee, the singer, collector of cowboy and folk songs, and composer, who celebrated the oar-powered trips by writing and recording a series of Folk Songs of the Colorado River. On NEVILLS' 1941 trip, Alexander "Zee" Grant piloted a kayak, or cloth-covered foldboat, through the Canyon. NEVILLS' successors, James P. Rigg, Jr., and J. Frank Wright, renamed the business "Mexican Hat Expeditions, Inc." Norman Doyle Nevels is a name found in our MS group--actually Betty Stafford's family. Jan
