Indian Guinn's From Oklahoma/Arkansas

I have heard from someone (Andy Quinn - andyguinn@yahoo.com) earlier this week looking for more information on something that we posted in our Oakie Heart to Heart newsletter about 9 years ago in Vol. 2, entitled "The Crooked Bridge Story."

This is what one of our readers submitted some seven years ago. I don't have a name or email address of the person who submitted and thought maybe by chance that someone might remember the following and still be out there.

"Mailbag" submission from Vol. 2: "I love hearing about Oklahoma from you so much that I am trying to figure out how I can work it into my schedule to visit. Oklahoma that is--and you too, but I won't just "drop by". :) A coworker had to come out there last fall while I was on medical leave. He helps to approve day care centers and he was in the Indian Day Care Centers in your area. I was so jealous of him, but he brought me back some souvenirs of his trip. He KNOWS I am passionate about my Indian roots. If you know of any Indian Guinn's that might would be willing to help share some history it would sure be appreciated. Love your newsletter--Keep it coming! Today I attended the Carlisle 2000 Powwow to honor the Carlisle Indian Students. I got to meet Scott Momaday and got his autograph. Jim Thorpe's daughter was there also, but unfortunately I did not get to meet her. It rained all day, but was worth the trip."   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
