Notes
This 1913 Waggener postcard of George Chinidere, aka "Indian George" is from the Library of Congress. Mr. Chinidere was the subject of many photographs and postcards. I wonder if he was compensated for his work.

I hope so, but he was given some sort of immortality — I believe Chinidere Mountain was named for him? As I recall, nearby Tomlike Mountain was named for a relative of his (don’t have my OGN book handy!)

He reminds me of White Salmon's Jacob Hunt.

Thank you, Stever, for mentioning "Browse". I had not used that feature before.
