Adaline Hodge was born on Christmas Day, 1865 in a Creek settlement near Wagoner called Choska Bottoms. Her father, Alvin T. Hodge, was a farmer and judge in the Creek Nation. In an interview by the Tulsa World in 1967, she stated, “He owned just about all of Tulsa (county). I mean the land. We could take our allotment anywhere we wanted.”

Adaline attended the historical Tullahasse Creek Mission that Reverend R.M. Loughridge had established in 1850. While there, she was elected to travel with the Reverend and his wife to Carlisle, PA on business. They traveled by train and then wagon. Adaline spoke 3 Indian languages and served as an interpreter. This was something many in her family had done.

Answering the comment about Fronnie. Alvin's family does not have the only descendants. There are many cousins who are third generation of Alvin's siblings.

Thanks for the pictures and family information. Our family are part of those that traveled west to California. My grandmother Elsie Jones put my mother and then myself and three sisters on the Creek roles 35 years ago thanks to Adeline Orcutt (myself #52169). I too have been in Government but not native government (Planning commission chairman and now a city building official).
I wish she could see how her family has lived on and how the family strengths have endured, but mostly to know we are happy. (Pu fvckvkes). I speak, write and read Mvskoke but I am still not fluent. It is hard but I think it is important we continue making our culture relevant.
