[edit] Who was Curtis?

The Curtis Act in 1898 expanded the powers of the federal government over American Indian affairs. An act of congress in 1902 disbanded the Kaw tribe as a legal entity. This act transferred 160 acres (0.6 km²) to the federal government and about 1,625 acres (6.6 km²) of Kaw land to Curtis and his children.

Umm...who was Curtis? Later Vice President Charles Curtis, or someone else? -- Ray Chason 13:41, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
