Yes, I know.  (probably others, too)

Of at least one.  Maybe two, if 'Shorty' is still alive.  Don't know if 
there are any of 100% Modoc blood -- they would be rare, if there are -- 
but numerous part-bloods should be around ...

Figures for 1905, iirc, were about 225 in Oregon and 57 in Oklahoma -- 
this is a good census question, but an accurate answer is most likely 
with the Klamath tribal roles.  Maybe check that website Dan M referred 
to earlier.
