Hopi Wisdom Teachings, LLC, Jeremie Leckron aka Grandmother Medicine Song falsely claiming to be Hop

--- Quote ---Great Aunt, Tish (1/2 Hopi 1/2 Anglo)

This is Jeremie Leckron's claim about Emily “Tish” (Speirs) Staples, but again this is a very well documented woman. Just like her sister Violet, she was very active in civic matters. Obit, photos, census, newspaper articles, and other records detail her life.
One of many examples, this from The Transcript Bulletin 28 Mar 1958:
--- Quote ---Affectionately called 'Tish 'by most everyone, she is a native of Tooele. She is a graduate from Tooele high school and the University of Utah, obtaining her Bachelor of Science degree at University of Utah in 1939. She is at present time working for a Master of Arts degree at the Utah State University. 'Tish' has continuously served as a teacher in the Tooele County schools since 1923.

Some details on how this identification was made:
Jeremie Leckron states she was born in 1943, Glendale CA. She says she has Mormon family ancestry.
People search records supply her birth month and day. Also a list of past surnames.
She has used the name Jeremie Jackson-Leckron for her "Hopi elder" performances. In her most recent husband's obituary she is named Jeri Harris at the time of their marriage. Sometimes she uses the middle initial L.
Her indexed birth record, including her mother's maiden name, can be found on Family Search. Same birth date, same birthplace - Jerri Lynn Jackson.
Through public records, a chronology can be worked up, including through several surname and ultimately first name change.
Both sides of her family can then easily be looked over. She claims Hopi maternal lineage through "Violet" and "Tish". These names are reflected in her actual maternal line, both white Mormon women.
She is seen in the 1960 Utah Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Church Census Record, accessed through Family Search - along with her parents and four siblings.

In 2001 she turns up in Kentucky news and event listings as Jeremie Jackson-Leckron, "Unity lay Minister and Hopi Elder".
