Karen, I do believe this is my Andy! I was so glad to receive your message! I have been at this dead end for so long! Yes, Andy's wife was Martha Louise. I just visited with some relatives over the weekend, and after talking with them, I came to the conclusion that it was Andrew or Andy that had to be the "doctor" that my grandmother referred to. She at one time at a picture hanging in her house with Andy and his wife, and it was burned in her house fire. That was the only picture she had, and the only story ever told was this....GM (Etta Curtis) went with her grandfather to the indian reservation and houses to treat the "sick", and she helped carry his "black bag" and mix "medicines" for him. One day he called her when she was still a child and he was suffering from something similiar to indigestion, and asked her to go to his "brother's house" we believe (in the same area) and get some of his medication. When they returned, he had passed away. ..............this was what my grandmother had told few of her daughters and grandchildren. We were also told she was part indian and we thought it must be from this Helton side.
I would love to know any any information or see if this grandson has any photos I could pay to have copied. I would appreciate any help.
