I been trying to convince my Tonkawa friends to return to Texas since 1985. We lived at the Tonkawa P.O.W. Camp in Oklahoma for a few years when I was real young child. We left in 1983. I got my first kiss there and my first swimming lesson at the dirty pond there. We used to park my step dad’s truck tire on a railroad tie. On the edge of the pond’s bank. And use it like a diving board. We live in Marble Falls Texas. Not far from the original territory. Spent many a weekend up and down San Gabriel river. So damned nice along there. We aren’t Tonkawa ourselves we just lived there. My dad moved us there when he went into the Army in 1973. He is Pawnee. His folks died when he was a baby. He was sold to a real old white British woman. That is how come I got the last name Evans. We don’t know what my dad’s proper names was. He calls me Deer Eyes. He said when I was born my eyes were wide open.
I have lept from the cliff into the blue hole of your ancestors valley. I've gathered the pecans of The Descendant trees your ancestors planted. I've drank water from the Springs your ancestors declared holy. And I have placed the blood and bones of my family in this soil. Thank you.
@@8arrows I mean this place Austin, Buda, Dripping Springs, Hays, Kyle, Mountain City, San Marcos, Uhland, Wimberley, Woodcreek. Bc weren’t they present in these areas too? Which all those are in Hays county.
@@lolstrongmen oh I see...you wrote “hay county” I thought you meant a “Kay” County in Oklahoma, where the Tonkawa p.o.w. Camp is. Now what about this area of Texas. I’m not sure what you are asking.... are you asking which lands in Texas once belonged to the Tonkawa? I’m not sure in their territory reached all the way into Hays County. Or into Austin and Buda area. More to the northeast of those towns. Tonkawa are just one of the 16 tribes that made up Comanchero. Aka the Comanche Nation.
I’ve only heard recently of the Tonkawa people from watching the tv series The Son. From what I saw on the show, and later through my own research, the Comanches were especially antagonistic towards them.
you can find exactly the same tents about the old chinese movie about a tribe of people living in the north-eastern area of china or the far north-eastern of russia
The USA burnt people at the stake in New England, in the name of Christianity! Slautered men women and children at Wounded knee. Afros started slavery by selling their own to the elite, they still have "cleansing" wars between tribes. We were no better or worse than all of humanity. Others hide their transgressions to mankind behind the Bible and the cross!
After the battle of plum Creek, general Huston wrote commendations for bravery for the tonkawas who had fought with the Texans under Burleson. The tonkawas were further rewarded by being allowed to roast and consume several Comanches at their victory dance
