Thank you for your interesting article. Last fall, my husband and I were on a tour, and visited the President Coolidge museum in his home town in Vermount. It so happened, we saw
numerous photos and the headdress given by the Sioux Tribe to President Coolidge.

During my research for my political science paper, I came across this page. Such a touching subject, considering that I am Native American.
Very informative. Thank you abundantly for addressing native people.

I am a distant cousin of this President. When I was a little girl I met his son John up in Vermont and had him sign my autograph book. I have a Uncle Calvin, a Uncle John, a brother Calvin and a nephew Calvin Coolidge. My grandpa was Clifford Coolidge who’s Mother could only speak German and that particular branch of the family came down from Canada into the Wisconsin Dells /Baraboo area. I’ve always loved that I was a relative and a strong conservative and my Dad..Curtis Clifford Coolidge loved and had a animal menagerie and was a preacher. I LOVE that he had a heart for the Native Americans. I was born in Phoenix and my Dad and family would go out to the Navajo reservation and have revival meetings. I always thought I’d marry an Indian. I did not. 🙂 I love that the President’s honorary Indian name was Chief Leading Eagle.!!! We MUST bring them back to their rightful position of honor in this country.!! Sincerely Ruth Coolidge Masden.
