Please contact me if you would like information from my side of the family. I am also a member of the Sac & Fox tribe. I have 2 brothers and 1 sister - amazingly, we have all been reunited; our mother was Suzanne Newashe. She is the granddaughter of Bill Newashe. She passed away several years ago and was buried in Stroud, Oklahoma. I would like information on my mother, Suzanne, if anyone out there has it.
