Klamath Republican September 4, 1902 Stephen Douglas, an Indian living near Picard, was seriously injured on Thursday of last week by a horse falling on him. The horn of his saddle crushed his brest, and his recovery is reported doubtful. ---------------------------- (not sure about his death date figuring from the article above being published the 4th and he was still living at that time, so maybe a misprint and should be 22nd, but not sure) Klamath Republican September 25, 1902 Ashland Record - Stephen A. Douglas, the well known Indian vacquero of Butte Creek, died the 2nd, at Picard, from injuries sustained from having been thrown from a horse a few days before, at Cobb McManus' place in Oklahoma. Douglas was a unique character and one of the most intelligent Indians of the county. In 1861 John A. Fairchild, coming through the Hoopa Reservation, noticing a round faced, good natured Indian boy, asked if he was for sale. Finally he gave the parents $100 for him and put him on the bell horse of the pack train. He was christened Stephen A. Douglas after a candidate who was nominated for president. (Note: Oklahoma Flat was an area in Siskiyou County, Calif., near Sheepy Lake. Sandy) _________________________________________________________________ From must-see cities to the best beaches, plan a getaway with the Spring Travel Guide! http://special.msn.com/local/springtravel.armx

The estate is cropped almost entirely to hay for his cattle, of which he owns a goodly number.

Thanks! I love to keep adding! Do you know whether the Beal family descends from white lines? I have seen a couple of white families named Beal, in the Jackson County census. That made me wonder if they were related or if this was one of those cases where the Beal line of Indians just adopted the Beal name. As I recall, the eldest Beal (white) was a merchant.
