    1. Re: [OKSTEPHE ] Civil War Veteran
    2. This doesn't go back to 1913, because I don't, but while growing up in Duncan, there was a family who lived behind us named Taliafero. (This would have been about '45 to '50.) Velma Taliafero (married name) was Indian, the daughter of Minnie Himes. Minnie had been raised in the ways of her tribe, and as a matter of fact, when Velma's grandmother died, there was an Indian ceremony at the Himes residence. Velma had a son who became a much sought after race horse trainer, and a daughter, Jewell, who became a beautiful model. That's about all I know. Hope it helps. Duane Monkres Edmond, OK
