I've started a historical novel related to the 1855 Indian wars in Yakama, the 1859 gold rush at Kettle Falls, the plight of the NW natives and also the opening up of the northern Columbia River and Kootenay Region in British Columbia. It turns out that Dick Fry factors into just about everything I am writing about and as I write on, he's becoming a central figure. All that said, I want to include as many facts as is known, and I'm stumped on his family tree, ie the names of his brothers and sisters (I know about Nathan, Alfred and Martin) but Id love to know the names of the other seven (three brothers and four sisters that are unnamed). Please email me at crsp@live.ca if known.
