Did you see he wrote a book on "Indian sign language" in 1930?

http://www.rootschat.com/links/05zh/    another image of him on book cover

His Mother was part native, so it wasn't a complete lie...he just wasn't raised in the native ways he wrote about...
Poor fellow must have been a marvelous real-life actor!

Not sure if they'd have anything that isn't already online in publications

Do you have his burial location? Name of cemetery, plot number, etc?

I have created a record for him at The Canadian Great War Project (CGWP) and would like to include that information.

According to the book in the previous reply, (Scoundrels, Rogues and Heroes of the Old North State) he is buried in Inglewood Cemetery, Los Angeles. (British Empire's Veteran's section)
