When he started grade school (~1915), he told everybody his name was "Jack." He didn't care much for the name Maurice.... While attending high school he stayed at grandparents Chatfield's home and rode horse named "Little Grey." According to history compiled by Betty Lou Camblin Woods in 1990, "Jack was a Keeline cowboy who homesteaded there (in Lead, Lawrence, SD) then later sold the property to the Keeline Ranch. A local schoolteacher, Mary Schmidt, became his wife. They had three girls, all of whom worked at the Union State Bank. Jack attended high school at Sundance, Crook, WY, but did not graduate.
