has a collection titled "The F B Severs Collection". I believe it is in the archives at OK City but do not know. It is probably documents related to years of Indian Affairs and nothing to do with him, his fmily, or his Civil War Service but I do not know. Does anyone know anything of the contents of this Collection? There was an interesting article in a Muskogee OK press on the "Severs Hotel" which has been renovated into a bank building and is still in use after years of abandonment or dilapidation. Some years ago Barry Carroll purchased an AMberotype photo of F B Severs in an Antique shop. It was accompanied by a box of papers and a matching picture of a finely dressed Indian Woman. When Barry did some research he found FBS had married an Indian (Annie Anderson). He rushed back to purchase the remainder and found it had been sent to San Francisco to an auction house and sold. Anyone knowing the whereabouts of any of this material could do the purchaser and Mr Carroll a great service by making a contact (csrelix@epix.net) or to me. I believe the picture had her name on the back as the one of FBS had his name on the back. The value (both historical and financial ) of both pictures and material would be greatly enhanced if each owner knew of the other. Charles Severs
