• Notes

  According to his granddaughter, Yvonne Anne LaVoy Lucker Talbot, Nicolas lived a quite adventurous life. He knew ther Earp brothers, Wyat and Virgil, and roomed with Virgil. He lived at one point in the OK Corral. He allso took part in the Alaska gold rush where he met and married his wife. He was a gambler and Mrs. Talbot says they went back to Tombstone, AZ, and found his "chits" for gambling which started at $1,000 to qualify for the game. In later life he rented apartment houses as a source of income. He lived at 7361 21st St., Seattle, WA.
