I am son of Hazel Elizabeth Rivers. My Mother passed 1994 or 1995, is buried in Gettysburg. My mother signed papers for her younger brother Alvin Joseph so he could join the U.S. Marines. Alvin was killed in action 1942, in the Philippines. Marines awarded a purple heart in his memory to my mother. President Roosevelt died April 12, 1945, I was born April 13, 1945. I never knew Alvin.

Anthony Alvin Rivers is alive, in failing health, he is 99 years old. He is my cousin, we know him as young Tony, former Chairman of the Sioux tribe, elected 1958, served four years. Eagle Butte South Dakota, formerly Old Cheyenne River Agency, now under water following construction of the Oahe Dam 1950's, dedicated By president John F. Kennedy 1961. The Tribe lost millions of acers of land when the dam filled in and backed up. I exchange letters with my cousin Tony regularly. I have other additional history that I will add in at a later date.
