Papa Pilgrim..It is a most bizzarre story. I saw the family playing music , in McCarthy , July 4 th 2003..barefoot girls , with their long bearded father playing banjo. Their is a book written about this family and their role as Poster Child for the battle of land rights for the Park, and the strange story that followed the family of 17 children, their certifiable crazy papa, and a broken wife.
The ‘broken wife’ was only 16 when the bastard manipulated her, more than twice her age, impregnated her every two years with 15 children. Sexually abused his oldest daughter for 15 or 16 years and expected his daughter to be his wife so he could make more children. Died 8 months after imprisonment. Evil MF. Lived in NM before varying then off to Alaska. I just watched a video about him. It is not only bizarre, was an evil bastard.
I would love to hear more about that weird family they talked about it on the edge of Alaska series.
how crazy they were
Read Pilgrim’s Wilderness by Tom Kizzia
OMG that scarred the crap out of me just watching

I can’t imagine seeing him and the family in person like you did. I’m sure everyone knew something was off.
