I have been told that the epidemic was started when a new road was being built and a American Indian Cemetery was relocated due to the road construction. Some of the people who were buried in the cemetery had died from Small pox. Does anyone have any knowledge of this epidemic? Please email me at ripnsharon@aol.com. Thank you, Sharon
