Belle Hancock William, one of seven chiidren of Price William and Maria Capote William, was born in the Florida Valley of La Plata County, ~, Colorado, on January 1 2 , 1 906. · J 11 My parents owned a frame house in the valley ~ust so:uth or where the narrow gauge railroad crossed the Florida River. (1½ miles south of where the present U.S. 160 crosses the river.) The valley was not cleared for bay fields then. It was full of sage brush. There were huge clumps, some 5 feet tall and so thick we used it for firewood. My parents could hunt and fish and gather wild food, but my father wanted better things for his family. He decided he would have a better chance for jobs if he could speak English, so after he was married, he went to Ft. Lewis to learn English. When he came home, he brought a Navajo boy named Jake who was in trouble with the Ft. Lewis people. · Jake stayed with us a long time and helped with the work. My father got a job at a lumber mill. He drove a team to drag logs. He had his own horses and mules and donkeys. He cut wild timothy down by _the river and in the hollows watered by the springs coming out of the Florida MAsa. Our nearest neighbors were a Mormon family. They loaned my father their mowing machine and then he would share the hay. · Every summer and rall my parents sent me out to pick blue berries, chokecherries, buffalo berries and Indian bananas(the fruit of the soap weed). The Indian bananas were my favorite. When the stalk gets dry and the pods hang down their heads in the fall, they are ready to pick. They are as sweet as apricots. I've been ·back to the places where we used to pick them, but the deer and elk always get them first. We also picked. wild onions and wild spinach. Sometimes my parents bought a bitter plant from the Mexicans for. medicine." · After a few years, Belle's parents moved over to her grandparent's· ) farm 3½ miles north of La Posta in the Animas Valley. Belle soon learned all about mjlking goats and herding sheep. "Most c:f the milk we made into keso (cheese). It's a simple thing. You boil the milk. Squeeze the juice from the Soap Weed into the milk and boil it some more. Let it cool. Then put the milk in a cloth and let all the water drip out. the keso we made was something like cottage cheese. 11 Belle was finally s~nt to the Indian School at Ignacio. She well remembers the big sign there which said, "Don't talk Indian, 11 but even so Belle mostly enjoyed the school. . · "It was more fun then milking gosts and herding sheepl 11 Belle was about 14 when her mother died. n1 stayed with my grandparents for a while. Then I got a job at La Posta working for the Candelario Vigil family who owned the store and dance hall there. I cleaned, carried water and helped with the cooking. I lived with that family two years and t h~y treated me very well. In 1922 Superintendent McKeen sent me to school at Towaoc. In the summers I didn't have any place to go so I got a job working at the Wrightsman Hotel in Mancos. Ellen Wa"tts and I both worked there two summers. We washed dishes, ironed table cloths, picked berries and cherries and currents and made them into ice cream and pies. Near the end of the second summer Ellen and I heard about the Spanish Fiesta in Durango. Our jobs were about to end at the hotel, so we took the train to Durango to watch the games and the races. When we found the Indian camp, we located Daisey Eagle, Ellen's sister. She took us home with her to Spring Creek. 11 ... �Belle attended the Haskell Institute in Kansas until she was 18. ~ When ·she came back to Colorado, she worked .for the hotel at Mancos again. Ellen Watts got married and it wasn 1 t long till Belle had married Curtis I -~\ · Cutth.air• , .· , , . , 1 met Curtis in Mancos. We had known one another several years. Finally, one summer Curtis came to see me and-said,, "I don't have any ·family of my own. I'd like to settle down and have a family to belong to. 11 Curtis had been to trade school. He got a job operating the steam heating system at the Agency in Ignacio. In his spare time he farmed his place north of Ignacio where the family home is located. Belle and Curtis had seven children, Richard, Garnet, Christine, Larry Vera, Laverne and Darlene. burtis later quit the Agency so that he could clear and plow the Oxford tract and spend more time on the farm. He died in 1965. Curtis probably never dreamed his ·wife would become a movie star, but that happened last year. Belle was selected to be in the cast of the movie "Winterhawk11 • She and Thelma Kuebler appeared in mountain -scenes in their native dress. Belle enjoyed her part in the movie very much. Whether they knew it or not, when the casting crew chose Belle, they chose some one ~Tith authentic ties with and memories of the tribal history of this area. Belle says, 11My grand.mother was a half-sister to Ouray. · My grandparents moved around with Ouray and fought the Commanches with him over the salt in the San Luis Valley. They chased the Commanches all the way to Antonito once and killed a lot of them. At one ttme there were Indian trails all th:rough the mountains. My grandparents traveled them, hunting and fishing during the warm time and in the winter they settled in the valleys. I might know more about the old days, but when I was a When I , child, it was not proper for children to ask many questions. )wanted to know something, my mother would often say~ 1 Don 1 t ask questions. Mind your own business. You are too young to know!' Belle's memories of her own time are very strong. 11 1 can remember our home in the sage brush in the Florida Valley. I remember learning the worship dance from Tom Nevrton's mother and the oldest memory I have as a little child is the time - I must have been about three - when I was wrapped in a blanket and tied on my aunt's back a.Tld she was dancing and dancing and dancing. I can't forge~ things like that." ' 11 by Shelby Smith �BI- CENTENNIAL SOCIAL IN MARCH f the first Bi-Centennial our March 26 Senior Social W!-1 ~~~-irboles communities.
