Dehart
I had a half-brother, George Daniel Hankins, who was born March 10, 1931, at Big Sandy, Choteau County, Montana; his birth was never registered.He carried the Girton name after Mom and Dad married in 1932.George died in 1976.Our mother, Mary Elmina Hankins, died in 1999.
Mom lived in the Bear Paw Mountains in Montana.She was 16 when George was born.Mom could tell my sister and I very little about George's father.Mr. Dehart was a "half-breed" who lived in the Dakotas, probably in his mid-30s at the time.She ran away with him to Lewiston or Lewistown (Idaho or Montana?), where the law caught up with them and he ended up serving time in prison.
If any of this rings a bell, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Melva Sloan
