I am a descendent of Anson Call and I wondered if anyone could give me some information on
Josiah Call. Anson Call (Josiah's brother) and Mary Flint adopted an Indian girl when
she was about 2 years old and named her Ruth. We found a story that says another Call
family bought her mother at the same time from the Ute Indians. I know that Josiah lived
in Fillmore at this time and wondered if he might have bought the Indian woman. Do you
have any record of Josiah buying an Indian woman so that she would not be killed by the
Ute Indians. I don't have a name of the woman but it would have been around Oct./Nov.
of 1853. Thank you for your help.
