E: Then where have your children gone to school?

B: They have graduated from Rock Hill High [School, Rock Hill, South Carolina], and
 they have attended York Tech.

E: I have a tape of your son Travis and he told me that he had just finished high school.

B: That is right.

E: How many of them are married?

B: I have three that are married, the three oldest.

E: And how many grandchildren?

B: Three.

E: I noticed the ones you have here are all dark haired. Are you proud to see that?

B: Yes.

E: Are there any blonds in your family?

B: No.

E: Now, I want to know how you were accepted in the reservation when you came as
 a white married girl, married to a Catawba Indian. How did they accept you and
 how did you feel?

B: I had no problems. The first time I came to the reservation it was on a Sunday
 night, I came up to church for a meeting. It was there that I met a lot of the older
 people, and I guess the one that I remember the most was Lula Beck. I was always
 accepted and I was just taken in as part of the family.

E: Where was your first home?

B: It was here in Rock Hill.

E: Not at this present location?

B: No, it was down off the Leslie Highway. We rented a trailer from Homer Blackman
 and we lived there until we moved up here.
