Caption on back of photograph reads: The handsome young man in this photo is William Fowler a Montauk Indian, the son of George Lewis Fowler Sr. and Sarah Melissa Horton Fowler of the Montauk tribe. He and his three brothers, Norris (Sid), John (Red Man), and George (Jake) were all veterans of World War I. In view of the fact that the Montauk community at East Hampton was never large, this was an impressive contribution from the descendants of the mighty Wyandank. William Fowler spent much of his life traveling. He showed the same spirit of adventure that his famous ancestor David exhibited. He lived in Connecticut for some time and came to spend the remainder of his life in Freetown with his brother Norris, his two nephews Leonard and Alex Fowler, in the little house on Springs Road. This is the same house that was built on the Montuak reservation and moved to its location after the tribe lost their land in 1879. This Montauk patriot died on February 17, 1963 at the age of 69 and was buried in the Fowler family plot at Cedar Lawn Cemetery in East Hampton on February 20, 1963. He died only eleven days after his cousin Pocahontas.
