Notes

His mother died when he was three, and he was taken to be raised by Benjamin E. Gump and his wife, Mary A. (Thornton) Gump who was ¼ Cherokee Indian. The Gumps had planned to adopt Henry but Mr. Gump died before that was accomplished and his wife decided to leave it the way it was for awhile. She later married a man by the name of Boles but he wasn't interested in adopting Henry. It is not known whether Mr. Boles died or just drifted away, but Mary A. Boles was always called "Grandma Boles" and it is assumed she was a widow. She is the only Grandma the Nation children ever knew. Apparently she died in 1918 and most of her property was left to the boy she raised, Henry G. Nation.
