I'm looking for information on the family of George H. Ballard, who is buried in the Greenleaf Cem., near Tahlequah, in Cherokee Co., OK. He was married 3 times. His first wife had two children: Mary C. Ballard, b. Sept 1886 TX, and Thomas Preston, b. Feb 1889. George m. 2nd to a Mary (____) and had two more children: Myrtle F. Ballard, b. Apr 1899 TX and Frank, b. 1903 TX. George m. 3rd to Lucinda Stain?. They appeared in the 1910 Cherokee Co., OK census in Township 4.

Little is known about this family. In 1900, they were in Mills Co., TX. George probably married Lucinda after arriving to Oklahoma.

Son, Thomas Preston Ballard, participated in WWI and in 1925 married Lula Ellen Scott, dau of Albert Scott and Hannah Teehee??

Any help on these families would be greatly appreciated. They are said to be of Cherokee blood.

Mike
