Hi Cowgirl,

It is doubtful that the park was named for great granddad, but it could have been named for one of his brothers who was on the Council of Chiefs - has his picture in the state museum. Great grand lived to be 107 and raised two complete families. My grand mother was the oldest of the second family - her mother was from Wales. Great, great granddad was Eli Crowder, a white man and a bona fide hero of the war of 1812 - complete with monument. He married a Choctaw girl and stayed with the tribe.

Sorry to run on, but the old folks were fun.
