"frybread" "fry bread"

[Swain, Bill]

Dan- another thought...  "frybread" is generic and could be many different
kinds of fried dough.  "Fry bread" is French toast, at least in southern
Appalachia.

Generous listmembers--

I need immediate help with a line edit that I must return ASAP.

One:
The copy editor noted that Webster's says "frybread" didn't come into use
until 1950.  My characters are Cheyenne and the year is approximately 1885.
She also divided it into two words: fry bread
Can someone offer information?  And if I can't use frybread as a staple,
what
other dish made from grain would my character prepare for a meal?
