Description
MATTHEWS, Justice. OPINION This case involves a custody dispute over a seven year-old child, Shannon D. Matson. The general issue is the propriety of the trial court's order rejecting the special master's findings of fact and Conclusions of law and awarding custody to the child's father. Mr. and Mrs. Matson were married on January 15, 1972. During their marriage they resided in Port Heiden. Shannon was born on August 6, 1974. The Matsons separated in August 1975. Mrs. Matson took Shannon with her upon their separation and had physical custody of her until December 1975. At that time she gave the child to her husband, and in February 1976, Mr. Matson placed Shannon in the home of his first cousin, Annie Christensen. At the time of the custody hearing, Mr. Matson lived next door to the Christensens in Port Heiden, which is a native village with about seventy residents. Should he be awarded custody, Mr. Matson intends to leave Shannon with the Christensens.
