The collection of marriage records included herein are those which were recorded or mention in the surviving records of the old Chickasaw Nation, the majority of which were performed under tribal license. http://www.chickasawhistory.com/g_mar_2.htm Jon Eastman Hardwick, in his article in "Pioneers of Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory Volume II" writes that they both are buried under a tree on the old Hardwick place near Powell. A double headstone marks the place. He also indicated they had a son named Frank.
