I'm hoping editors might help me locate records for more of the Della Keats Healing Hands Award recipients.--JECason (talk) 00:23, 7 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Birthdate questionable

edit

The story published by the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reporting on her death began with "At her 79th birthday in January", so I'd be curious to know what sources were consulted to arrive at the birthdate used in the article.

The date is listed on p. 154 of the Lucier source, which is a recorded oral autobiography. The statement in the source is directly quoted and attributed to Della Keats, who said that in Juneau her birthdate is listed as 1908 but was really April 15, 1907.
