He was very dedicated to this purpose. He worked very hard at collecting and preserving historical and genealogical material that would be available for generations. Mr. Talbot belonged to several historical societies including the Cherokee National Historical Society. He was placed on the Historical Society Board by the Cherokee Nation--the first non-Indian to hold a position on the board. Virgil was very proud of this honor. Virgil Talbot died June 17, 1998. He was posthumously named to the Oklahoma Historians Hall of Fame in 2005 by the Oklahoma Historical Society. He was an avid collector of historical records of this area and was so very proud of the Talbot Library and Museum.
