I'm going down to the Gardens soon for our yearly peyote meeting, with the Native American Church. I always learn of things and places that the family did and have important meanings. It is so amazing to see how they used white sand to lite up the tee pee on the moon. I'm sad that their aren't alot of family that carry on the NAC ways. But just to let you know the Native American Church is still strong. Did you know the people that gave Quanah peyote and healed him are getting together again. Their was a documentary done on their Pilgrimage to harvest peyote from beginning to end, I got to see it this past summer, it was awsome. We would love to travel their and have a peyote meeting but it is just to dangerous to get their. Anyway I'II give you a call, take care.; ▶ Reply to This

Good Morning, just letting those know looking for family of Cynthia Ann Parker, mom of Quanah Parker,an honorable man died on February 23, 2010. His Name was Wilbur Lee Ragle, adoptive Paternal grandfather to my children. He was the ONLY grandfather on my childrens dads side they ever knew. I dont know the exact relation to Cynthia Ann, but do know this to be true. Wilbur was I believe the last of his family with the exception of one nephew somewhere. He and all his siblings lived long lives, his brothers first name was Parker- named for the Parker bloodline. You are welcome to contact- lucy@tstar.net; ▶ Reply to This
