needing some help looking up the death information and obituary for
Ross M. Hubbard. born 11 Jan 1895.
Last know where abouts were in Canadian County. His widow was Bessie Hubbard, and believe to have died 15 Jan 1966...perhaps her obit will tell when he died.

Hoping to also make a connection with his family.
He was the son of Allen M. Hubbard and Sarah M. Laughton....he is the descendant of a Revolutionary War Patriot...David Laughton who served in the state of New York.

Thank you for what ever help you are able to render in this matter.

...Raymond, I can not believe that I could not pull up an obit for either one of your kin. Mr Hubbard was well known in the El Reno area due to him owning the Hubbard Slaes Barn & Auction for many years in El Reno.

I did, however locate a wedding announcement of one of their daughters in the Oklahoman Newspaper archives dated:

02-08-1948

Vows Are Read for Miss Hubbard

In a ceremony performed in the First Presbyterian church in El Reno, Miss Zelma Hubbard, daughter of Ross Hubbard, El Reno, and Mrs Bessie Hubbard, 808 SW 30, was married to Wayne Reuter, son of Mr and Mrs W F Reuter, El Reno.
Rev Everett Poole, pastor of the First Presbyterian church in Anadarko, officiated at the service.
Mrs J J Courtney, pianist, accompanied Henry Joe Von Tungelin, who sang.
Mrs Harold Reuter, sister of the bride, and Gaylord Reuter, brother of the bridegroom, attended the couple.
The bride wore a navy blue crepe dress. She carried a white Bible topped with white rosebuds.
A reception was held in the evening at Heaston hall, southwest of El Reno. Mrs Wayne Essley, Mrs Bertha Erbar, Miss Twila Reuter, Mrs Vernon Reuter, Miss Vera Reuter and Miss Betty Hubbard assisted.
Mrs Reuter is a graduate of El Reno highschool. Mr Reuter attended El Reno highschool and served two years in the army, with 18 months spent in Korea. Mr and Mrs Reuter will reside at El Reno.

...from the looks of this announcement, the Hubbard's were not together as man & wife. I will keep checking to see what I can find out for you. Until the next time, good luck with your research...
