You mentioned VP Charles Curtis and I have been digging into that same history as President Hoover extended the term of the allotments of Kakaygeesick and Namaypoke in 1930 for another 10 years. It wasn't until Roosevelt's New Deal that the 1934 American Indian Act passed which began to reverse the assimiliation and allotment policies that had come before.
Hi Jill, I was fascinated with what I discovered about Vice President Charles Curtis and how it tied into your research, but it is too complicated for me to write about or for my readers to understand at this point. I found that Curtis had written an autobiography, which I thought would be fun to read.
