I talked with her several times in 1985-86 and she was a very talkative, likeable and interesting person. She did get too shy, however, to be videotaped by the Okla. Historical Society. She may have given an interview, anyway, to Marshall Gettys. When I showed her the 1901-02 photo of the Goodland Church group, she and I scanned it several times for identifying people before she suddenly stopped. Then she pointed to the large Choctaw man at the right front corner, next to Silas Bacon, and gasped, "That's Daddy!" Evidently she had never seen a photo of him when he was so young since she was only 5 or 6 then. I got her a copy after that, but it makes you kick yourself for not getting that much done for more people who had such a memorable past. Her grandmother came over the Trail of Tears but would never talk to her about it. She was probably born in the log cabin that still ex! isted as a barn in 1986, next to her house. She said her mother went to work for Goodland when they re-started the school in 1898. Her husband and her son both worked at the Goodland Home or Goodland Public School for most of their lives. (I don't understand how she had lived there for only "twelve years"? It may have been "all but twelve years".)
