Mrs. Croker was a former Muskogee, Oklahoma resident

Mrs. Beulah Benton Edmondson Croker, widow of powerful
Tammany Hall Boss, Richard Croker, who died Saturday
March 16, 1957 in West Palm Beach, Florida, was a former
Muskogee, Oklahoma resident and teacher.

A niece of the late Congressman W.W. Hastings of Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Mrs Croker was the only Indian who ever owned a castle
in Ireland. She received it through the will of her husband. Mr. and
Mrs. Bruce Garrett and their daughter, Kathleen, lived in the Irish castle until the children by Croker's first marriage took it away
from Mrs. Croker in a legal battle. Mrs. Garrett was Mrs. Croker's sister.

Congressman Hastings went to Europe to fight the case in the
courts, and as far as can be ascertained Hastings was the only
American Indian who ever defended a law suit in Europe.
