My grandpa survived that epidemis of influenza- walked to the hospital, stayed there for a few days. Everyone around him was dying, so he left.
My great- great- great grandma on the other side of the family was a Pueblo. DM said she saw a picture of her once, but does not know where the pic. went, or who had it.
Fun thread- great stories!
