My name is Debra Triplett, and I'm trying to get information on my grandmother, Charlsie Roena Thomas. Her middle name is often spelled Rowena. She was married to my grandfather, William Jefferson Triplett, then remarried later to Mr. Alsup.

My father was Garland Oscar Triplett, one of about 13 children she had....Other children were Dovie, Alene (who died a couple of years ago) Clarence, Vernon. My dad died May 28th, 1994 in Ventura, California, from an aneurysm in the stomach.

I've heard that her last name is spelled two ways: Thomas and Tomas. I know that she is American Indian. I'm trying to find information as to which particular tribe she belonged to.

I've never been able to get past her, so I don't know much, but I believe she had a brother named Ledge. If you have any information at all, it would be very appreciated and extremely helpful... I remember visiting her when I was six years old in Santa Maria, right before she passed away. (I was born in 1956).

I live currently in Sacramento, California. I'd love to hear from you.
