My mother (Eureka) was J.V.'s sixth child, and was born near Spiro, where-I have not been able to determine. My mother and her 3 sisters attended the Choctaw Female Institute near Tuskahoma. The older ones graduated from the school. They all moved to west of Pauls Valley to claim their Indian land in the Chickasaw Nation, after the death of J.V. in 11/1906. I have a photo J.V. taken approx 1902.
