Biography

From Find-A-Grave:^[1]

Napoleon, before he died said "don't bury me with the "heathens" (they were living in Indian Territory near Sapulpa) and he said to bury him near the creek on the land they were staying on and had built cabins on. The creek is "Biven Creek". Aunt Alta had a map - drawing of where the cabins were. Years later there was an article in the paper that told of the pipeliners finding a body there.
