<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT id=role_document face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>
<DIV>Ira Monroe Hanna came west by wagon train-year unknown. He lived
for a time in southwestern Oregon-Oakland area. Is said to have fought
in the Rogue Indian War. Eventually he settled in New Chicago Montana (south
of Drummond-north of Phillipsburg) His wife was Sarah Alice Karnes
(Carnes) born 15 Dec 1854 in Lafitte Indiana. Family tradition has it
that she was found with an Indian tribe when she was 8-10 years of age and
adopted by Joseph Karnes and his wife Lidia (Lydia) This is my daughter's
in-law family. They are interested in knowing if the family tradition
has any truth to it.(how did they know her date of birth and place of birth if
she was found with an Indian tribe(they do not know which tribe or
locality) I have read a variety of tales of children stolen and adopted
by various Indian bands but do not remember the details of any of them.
Can someone shed light? Thanks, Judy
