Who Knew Then


This is a photograph taken in 1907 in Browning, Montana on the Blackfeet Reservation. On the left is Sam Burd on Blue Bird and on the right is Henry Devereaux on Roman. They are engaged in a horse pulling contest which was won by Henry.

Sam Burd is Steven Juneau's (Lamar Associates Vice President) great-grandfather and Henry Devereaux is the great-uncle of Walter Lamar (Lamar Associates President/CEO).

Who could have imagined in 1907 that in 2007 their descendants would be managing a company serving Indian Country!
