Narrative
John Bartlett Meserve's article in The Chronicles of Oklahoma, December, 1937, states that Cyrus Harris was married three times: first to Kizzia Kemp, then Tenesey, and finally to Hettie Frazier, "widow of Ishtehotobah, the venerable and beloved King of the Chickasaws." [This is apparently what passed for history back in 1937...]
