Early History
Ida Nash was born in June, 1871 to Florian Haraden Nash, Sr. (1837-1920) and Frances (“Fannie”) R. Vann (1844-1873) in Fort Gibson, Cherokee Nation.1 Fannie Vann was a granddaughter of Lewis Ross, brother to Chief John Ross, the longest-serving chief of the Cherokee Nation. Ida’s father, Florian Nash, was not Indigenous; he moved to Indian Territory from New Orleans, Louisiana, and quickly gained a reputation as a prominent merchant. He and Fannie married in 1864, but their union lasted only nine years, as Fannie passed away in 1873, two years after Ida’s birth. Fannie was survived by her husband and three children: Lewis (1864–1913), Haraden “Harry” (1866–1899), and Ida. In November 1874, Florian married Lucy Morgan Rogers (1857-1890), who was also from a prominent Cherokee family, and together they had seven children: Fanny “Fannie” (1875-1966), Francis “Frank” (1877-1959), Florian, Jr., (1878-1949), Lucy (1881-1965), Corinne (1886-death unknown), Hilda (1887-1947), and Edwin (1890-1946).2

Ida’s father, Florian, was a successful merchant, an influential figure in the Cherokee Nation, and a long-serving elder of the Presbyterian church in Fort Gibson. He was employed as a banker, legal advisor, and financial consultant, and was also known for extending credit and offering loans to local residents.3 His girls, including Ida, Fannie, and Lucy, would later attend the Presbyterian School for Indian Girls (PSIG).

School
Available documentation indicates that in the Fall of 1888, Ida was already enrolled at PSIG. According to the “Presbyterian Mission Notes,” in the Muskogee Phoenix, Ida, along with other students, was on the “perfect deportment record for the week,” demonstrating excellence in behavior and moral conduct in the school and dormitory.4

Toward the end of the fall of 1888, Ida was listed among students whose grades went beyond 95 in the week ending December 8, with a record of 99 points.5 She maintained good standing in both scholarship and deportment the following Spring, with a grade of 98 in scholarship and 100 in deportment.
On Saturday, December 1, 1888, Ida’s brother Harry visited her at school.7 On December 13, the “Daily Announcements” of the Muscogee Phoenix reported that Ida “paid a brief visit to her brother in Wagoner.”8 The brother mentioned in the announcement was likely Ida’s second brother, Lewis “Louie” Ross, who was living in Wagoner at the time.9 In the Fall of 1889, Ida was received as a guest of “Misses” Elliott of Muskogee.10 Two months later, Ida travelled to Tahlequah, her maternal home, and spent her winter holidays with her friends as a guest of Mrs. G.O. Butler. The Telephone reported that Ida was “quite a favorite with the young people [there].”11

No record has been found of Ida as a student at PSIG after 1889, when she would have been eighteen years old. However, a news article in the Muskogee Phoenix reported that Ida, alongside family members and friends, including Fannie, visited Muskogee from Fort Gibson on Wednesday, June 12, 1895—a year after PSIG was absorbed into Henry Kendall College. They were attending a Henry Kendall College event at the Opera House, where their sister, Lucy (“Lutie”) performed a piano duet—Schulhoff’s Grand Valse Brilliante—with Susanna Barnett.12 Later that year, on September 10, Rev. F. F. Dobson accompanied Ida, Fannie, and Lucy from Fort Gibson to Muskogee, where they dropped Lucy off at Henry Kendall College to resume her studies in the Fall of 1895.13
Adult Life
The first commencement exercises for Henry Kendall College were held on Wednesday, June 1, 1898, when Ida was twenty-seven years old, and local papers reported that she and Fannie were in attendance. Another newspaper article noted that the two returned the following year for the same event.14 Repeated notices in local newspapers identified Ida as a frequent visitor to Muskogee, like one article in the Muskogee Phoenix that announced that Ida and Fannie travelled to “spen[d] the day with Muskogee friends.”15 Ida, in turn, also hosted friends and relatives in Fort Gibson. An announcement in the Fort Gibson Post of August 3, 1899, mentioned Miss Josie Blackston of Webbers Falls as a guest of Ida and Fannie.16 Like Muskogee, Webbers Falls was among the towns Ida visited most frequently, particularly between 1890 and 1900. An article from The Fort Gibson Post, on July 20, 1899, reported her return to Fort Gibson after a two-week stay with family and friends in that community. Multiple reports of such visits suggest that Ida maintained a relationship with the Blackston family in Webbers Falls.17
Ida was a regular presence at Fort Gibson events, often alongside Fannie. Two years prior, at the wedding reception of Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard Ross in October 1897—a ceremony, which The Fort Gibson Post described as “the most important society event of the season in Fort Gibson” —Ida and Fannie were noted as having given the couple a “lamp” as a wedding present.18 Another article listed Ida as a guest, along with another PSIG student, Fannie Sixkiller, at a “social hop” hosted by Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Walker at their residence in Garrison Hill.19
During one of their routine visits to William Nash’s residence, Ida and Fannie suddenly found themselves at the center of a criminal incident. A burglar, named J. M. Lovely, allegedly invaded the house. Upon noticing the intruder, Ida and Fannie were about to raise an alarm when Lovely allegedly attacked them, “attempt[ing] to smother” them before help arrived. According to the Muskogee Evening Times, Lovely was later “charged with burglary and larceny,” and at the court hearing on Monday, February 3, 1902, Ida and her sister took the stand to testify against the defendant.20
Although they had recently survived a burglary-related attempted homicide and had been involved in the legal proceedings that followed, Ida and Fannie remained engaged in their community. On Saturday, March 22, 1902, the Muskogee Evening Times referenced a Fort Gibson Post’s celebratory honor to Ida and Fannie for their thoughtfulness in planting ten maple trees in the Presbyterian churchyard—a gesture that is both a lasting legacy for the church and a shade for future generations. “What a pretty town Muskogee would be,” adds the Muskogee Evening Times, “if 100 of her young ladies would follow the example of these two Fort Gibson girls.”

Ida’s stewardship of nature is further evident in a note in The Fort Gibson Post, which announced the blooming of her sweet violet and recognized her fondness for planting flowers.22
At the age of thirty-two, Ida had identified herself with the “Spinsters of the Fortnightly Club of Fort Gibson”—an association, which, after an impressive dramatic display on October 8, 1903, in Fort Gibson’s Methodist church, received the moniker “A Jolly Spinster.” The Fort Gibson Post described the show as “one of the best entertainments of home talent ever held” in Fort Gibson. The dramatic display centered on women’s quests to find husbands—how much they must invest in themselves to attract a man, and where to find men who were still single. Ida, who was cast as Cyntha Percilla Jones—the treasurer of the spinsters’ club in the play— announced to the ladies on stage that their society was bankrupt; however, that they will proceed with every resource available to attract and secure companionship, “even if they had to take in washing.” In its closing review of the performance, The Fort Gibson Post acknowledged the great talents displayed by the Fort Gibson spinsters.23
Having made the most of her years as a spinster, with her engagements in Fort Gibson’s and Muskogee’s social communities, Ida married Robert Emmett Coleman on September 26, 1906, at the Presbyterian Church in Fort Gibson, at a ceremony officiated by Rev. Logan. Coleman was a furniture dealer and mortician who owned the “Coleman Furniture Company” in Fort Gibson.24 At the time of their wedding, Coleman was thirty-three, and Ida was thirty-five years old (although their marriage license reported Ida to be thirty-two, younger than Coleman).

The following month, on October 23, 1906, Ida applied for her share of the funds appropriated for Eastern Cherokee Indians under the Act of Congress of June 30, 1906, as authorized by the Court of Claims’ decisions of May 18, 1905, and May 28, 1906. In her application, which was directed to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs in Washington, D.C., Ida asserted her right to share the fund, stating that she makes claim “as an heir to my mother Fannie Nash nee Vann – Grand-Mother Araminta Vann and Grand-Father James Vann – and Uncles Henry Vann and Johnson Vann – and Aunt Sophia Vann and Aunt Minerva Murrell nee Ross – and Great-Grand Father Lewis Ross.”
The following year, on February 26, 1907, Ida wrote to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs in Washington, D.C. She requested that the names “Nancy Timberlake, Grt. Grt. Grandmother” and “Nancy Mackey, Grt. Aunt” be added to her claim for the Eastern Cherokee funds.

While married to Coleman and living in Fort Gibson, Ida (now Mrs. R. E. Coleman) continued her community engagements both within and outside the town, one of which was providing local support for the Great War.
In January 1918, slightly less than a full year after the United States joined the First World War (1914-1918), Ida, along with other Fort Gibson women, volunteered in the Red Cross, a patriotic response to a national call for “clothing for the Civilian Relief in Belgium and Northern France.” According to the Fort Gibson New Era, Ida donated a “Belgian cap,” which she knitted herself, to the Red Cross. Coinciding with Fort Gibson’s centennial, Mrs. Harrison Smith encouraged women and girls of Fort Gibson to join the work at the Red Cross, stating, “Any woman who fails to do her part now is unworthy of the name of woman, and should be ostracized by all true patriotics.” Responding to the call for more socks to be sent abroad, Ida donated 25¢ to the “Knitting Fund.”28 Later that year, on Saturday, August 3, 1918, a local newspaper reported that Ida and Robert, with Mrs. E. D. Stanback, were in Muskogee to watch the “To Hell With The Kaiser” show.29
Between 1918 and 1919, there was an outbreak of influenza in Fort Gibson. According to an article in the Muskogee Times-Democrat of January 18, 1919, the virus suddenly claimed an entire family. In the same article, Ida was reported to be recuperating from influenza.30
On October 15, 1920, Ida’s father, Florian, passed away at the age of eighty-three in Fort Gibson after a long illness. At his final moment, the Muskogee Daily Phoenix and Times-Democrat noted that all of Florian’s surviving ten children, including Ida, were gathered around him.31
Death and Legacy
Ida passed away on May 7, 1932, at the age of sixty-one. She was interred in Greenhill Cemetery on May 9, 1932, with funeral services conducted by the Baptist Church of Wagoner.32 She is remembered for her fervent commitment to her community and the different roles she played in various community organizations, including being one of the elected officers of the Order of Eastern Star, Fort Gibson chapter, in 1921.33 A week after Ida’s death, the Legal Record, on Wednesday, May 18, 1932, reported a petition filed by Robert Coleman for probate of her will to be heard on June 2, 1932.34 Following Ida’s passing, Coleman did not remarry. He continued dealing in furniture and funerals until his retirement in 1945. After a sustained illness, Coleman passed away in a Muskogee hospital in 1952 at the age of seventy-nine. According to a funeral announcement in a local newspaper, Coleman was remembered as “a member of the Fort Gibson Baptist church, a Mason, held life membership in the Order of Eastern Star and was a member of the Fort Gibson Board of Education for many years.”35 On September 30, 1952, following his funeral, a “notice of hearing petition for probate” of Coleman’s will appeared in Legal Record, inviting concerned individuals who were “interested in the estate of Robert E. Coleman” to make themselves known before the hearing of the will.36 However, no record has been found indicating that Ida and Coleman had any children for the twenty-six years they were married. Therefore, we welcome and encourage any descendants or relatives who may have additional information about Ida Vann Nash Coleman to share their knowledge.
