Geocache Description:


Charles Curtis was born on January 25, 1860, in North Topeka, Kansas Territory, a year before Kansas was admitted as a state. Curtis's first words as an infant were in French and Kansa, both languages that he learned from his mother. She died in 1863, when he was 3 years old, and he lived with his maternal grandparents on the Kaw reservation afterwards. As a teenager, he returned to the city of Topeka. There, he lived with his paternal grandparents while he attended Topeka High School.
He became a lawyer, a State Representative, and Senator. Curtis introduced the first version of the Equal Rights Amendment to the Senate in 1921. In 1928 with Herbert Hoover, Curtis was elected vice president. He made history because he was the only native Kansan and still the only Native American to hold the post.
He opened the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles and so became the first U.S. executive branch officer to open the Olympic Games. After leaving office, he participated in one of the earliest known triathlons in Washington DC. Curtis died from a heart attack on February 8, 1936, at the age of 76. His body was returned to Kansas and buried next to his wife at the Topeka Cemetery.
