Re: Tahlequah Newspaper 1908????

claytonmoyer1 — 2009-06-29 11:57:36Z

I'm looking for the parents of Sam E Moyers. He's on the 1910 and 1900 census. He was married to Tahlequah and born in 1874. Can you give any information that would confirm CJ and JD are the parents of Sam E.? Did you have any luck with the Tahlequah newspapers?

Anything you can tell me is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Clay

request for death date for Virginia (Freeman) Donovan

jdenny309 — 2009-06-27 22:16:28Z

Might anyone have access to a date of death for Virginia Donovan? If so, might you also locate an obituary? She was living in Lawton, Comanche County, OK, in 1934. Other Donovans of interest are Dorsett and Richard Donovan.

Many thanks for any information!

Re: Indian Federal Adoption Laws

k1etachu — 2009-06-23 14:08:10Z

If a child's Parents or grandparents were enrolled members of a federally recognized tribe it is possible for them and adoptive parents (if under 18); to obtain any and all information with in his/her adoption records pertaining to their Indian Ancestry.

If the adopted child meets the enrollment criteria for a federally recognized tribe (every tribe has different policy and blood quantum Requirements); then under ICWA law it is required that the adoptive parents be provided any and all necessary information to respect and honor that childs right to be enrolled with there tribe.

Or upon turning 18, even sealed adoptions are required to provide all indian information if the adopted child were to request it.

additionally, by law that child is also supposed to recieve legal assistance to obtain adoption information and/or membership that pertains to His/her Tribe(s).

You could contact the BIA office in Phoenix Region. Sometimes, in the past they have held Phoenix documents in Riverside,CA. However they have there own Agency in AZ.

They may not be able to provide you with what you are looking for right away, however, with patience and sometimes much needed persistence they can point you in the right direction or provide contacts of individuals and/or Indian Legal Services to help aid you in obtaining your documents/information.

If you know what tribe you are then you could contact that tribes administrative offices preferably the enrollment department or Cultural/Historical Preservation Program director or what ever department those types of things are in for that tribe. Many tribes have made efforts to document family trees, however the majority of Documentation is Oral History.

Good Luck! Hope you are able to find what it is you are looking for.

Whiteside/Fisher

kerryblu — 2009-06-09 18:54:36Z

Adaline Whiteside, full-blood Cherokee, was probably born in Jefferson County, Illinois about 1848. The name "Whiteside" was a nickname given her family; not their true last name. Her family originally crossed on the 'Trail of Tears' and ended up in Oklahoma. Supposedly, her father was a Chief or Headman. Adaline met George A. Fisher, Native American, in Oklahoma. They left tribal land in Oklohama and married; probably in Missouri. We located a marriage license dated 1864, Jefferson County, Missouri. Adaline and George then sharecropped for a while around Sedalia, MO. Eventually, Adaline and George moved to Franklin County, Illinois and started a family. Twins William T. and Sarah, (Sarah died at birth), were born in 1869, and George W. was born in 1871. Circa 1880, Adaline died in Illinois and George moved the boys to Bell City, Missouri. He left them with relatives and departed for parts unknown, only to reappear occasionally. He worked as a horse trader and served in a Confederate Indian regiment during the Civil War.

We have found no records on either Adaline or George. Family in Missouri received land allottment information from Tahlequah in the 1950's; however, they were uninterested and discarded the letter. Any help would be appreciated. I believe the key lies in finding Adaline's true last name.

Carl Barnes

bmarquis124 — 2009-04-28 03:08:37Z

I beleive he is half-cherokee and is from either Muskogee, Ft. Gibson, or Talequah, Oklahoma. Not positive about the spelling so it could be Karl Barns. If he is still living, he should be around 70 - 80 years old. Does anyone have information about this person?

Re: Fort Gibson Res.

sophie1958 — 2009-03-22 04:32:05Z

No matter what some one ses, someone in this mixing pot of ethnic groups, will be agitated or not happy with what was said. It is so hard now to just talk to people. They look for fault in every word,and move you make. The Cherokee family I know, are not like that. They taught me understanding, and forgivness. I don't judge by a persons posible mis-stated words. but what they do to others and for others. none of us walk on water, till we do, mistakes are made. and we must not critisize or minamize each other. We are all in this world trying to make it the best we can. what makes us unhappy, may not affect some one els the same. Try to help and be kind. love the life we have with each other. Amen

Re: Fort Gibson Res.

cherokeelady2008 — 2009-03-20 02:59:16Z

Isn' it amazing how people can insult without realizing it? Some terms used by people just cut right through me. Such as "sqaw" and "chief". Especially when I am asked "what God do you pray to?" And I am not real fond of "Indian" or "Native American" (which just means you were born in this country) we are "FIRST NATIONS PEOPLE". But hey, thanks for being so patient with the ignorance and continuing to help. I guess we should all be used to it anyway.

The Watkins boys that died in the tornado at Peggs were Benjamin Floyd and Julius. Benjamin was born June 3, 1909, he was a twin to James Lloyd. James Lloyd died in 1910. Julius was born July 19, 1911. They were my great grandpas brothers. The family story is that GGreat grandma Lillie Catherine had one by the hand and carried the other, as the wind knocked her down and took them away. She was running for shelter. My dad is Mike Watkins and we live in Tahlequah, OK. THis is the family story that was passed down. I have the dates in my genealogy papers.

REEDER Sr., Joel Bruce - Obit

HGrisso — 2009-01-15 22:12:05Z

From the Medford (OR) Mail Tribune 01-15-2009 at www.mailtribune.com

Photo included

Joel Bruce Reeder, Sr., 80, died on Jan. 12, 2009, at his home in Medford. Joel, the fourth of eight children, born to Harmon S. Reeder and Ruth Smets Reeder, was born in Tahlequah, Okla., on July 18, 1928.

After graduating from Central High School in Tahlequah, Joel attended Northeastern State University for three semesters where he played on the basketball team. His enlistment in the United States Air Force in September 1948 changed his life. While in OCS in San Antonio, Texas, Joel met Mary Arnold, a vivacious nurse from Baltimore, Maryland. Joel and Mary were married in Tokyo, Japan in March 1952, while both were serving in the Korean Conflict. Joel eventually attained the rank of Captain and piloted a B-29 with the 307 Bomb Wing, including six months in combat flying out of Okinawa, Japan. After his honorable discharge in 1954, Joel attended the University of Oregon and obtained his Bachelor of Law degree. Joel acted as the City Attorney for the City of Medford from October 1958 until June 1962. He was in the private practice of law from 1962 until his retirement in 2003. In 2008, he celebrated 50 years of membership in the Oregon State Bar and was awarded the Order of the Emerald by the University of Oregon School of Law.

During his life, Joel was active in many civic organizations, including the St. Mary's School Board and the Sacred Heart Parish Administrative Council. Joel and Mary were instrumental in the creation of and served on the Board of the Medford American Little League.

Joel was preceded in death by Mary, his wife of 44 years; his parents; and two older brothers, Harmon and Tom. He is survived by his 11 children and their spouses, Bruce and Sharon V. Reeder, Seattle, Wash; Mary Gorman, Loveland, Ohio, Sheryl Reeder, Vancouver, Wash., Carmelita and Paul Shinn, Oklahoma City, Okla., Loretta Owens, Madeira Beach, Fla., David and Terri Reeder, Naches, Wash., James and Katie Reeder, Indian Trail, N.C., Kathleen and Carl Moesche, Gresham, Ore., Patrick Reeder, Medford, Ore., Karla and Sheyn Brezniak, Hanover, Pa., and Sharon Reeder, Gresham, Ore.; 20 grandchildren; two great-grandsons; his companion, Carol Lynch; and his bridge partner since Mary died, Sandy Sherman.

The family invites you to wear vibrant clothes and come celebrate Joel's life at a funeral Mass at Sacred Heart Catholic Church on January 19, 2009 at 11:00 a.m. At Joel's request, in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the St. Vincent de Paul Society.

Woman searching for Cherokee father from Hobbs, NM

douglockhart — 2008-03-08 20:59:33Z

My wife is trying to locate her real father. She was

born in Hobbs, New Mexico on Sept 17th, 1955. Her

mother's maiden name was Bernadine Buschman. For

years she was lied to about who her father was. She

eventually uncovered that her real father was a

Cherokee Indian man living in Hobbs. 3 years ago our

oldest daughter made contact with his family and

discovered that he had been searching for her all

these years, however she suffered a catastrophic data

loss and lost what information she had. We know that

he lived in Hobbs, New Mexico until about 4 years ago

when he was moved to an Arizona facility for

Cirroshis of the liver. If you have any information

that could help re-unite my wife with her blood

We love to help other people find there families, but we need a little more help than what some of you are giving. For instance: if I was looking for a Robert Johnson in Oklahoma, There are 35 Robert Johnson's listed in the 1900 Federal census in Oklahoma. How do I know which one to look for? The answer is, I don't.....at least not without a little more information to go on. So please give us a little more information in your requests for help, for example: year of birth, and/or State of Birth, and or Parents names, and/or Spouse, and/or Children. Something more than a name and a State. It also would not hurt to have the persons ethnicity, ie: white/Black, so that we know if we have the right person you are looking for.

1920 census Hulbert Twp., Cherokee Co.
The Mitchell family: Emily K. "Emma" (Donaldson, Rea) Mitchell and her two daughters were living in Hulbert. Soon after this date the marriage ended in a divorce.

Emma's daughters (Jessie E. Rea and Ruth Agness Rea) were possibly going to school and also were married there.

Dau. Ruth Agness Rea married a Landrum about 1925/6

Emma Mitchell and Ruth Landrum/baby moved to Collinsville by 1930 census, and from our family bible records Emma died 2/20/1932.

All information on this family will be greatly appreciated. We would like to know where Emma is buried, also about her other daughters, Ethel Rea, Della M. Rea, Dora B. Rea.

Gibson Bottom

BillieCockerham — 2006-10-31 23:02:39Z

I learned today that my greatgrandmother, Sarah Bell Dye Molder, qualified for 160 acres of "Gibson Bottom" near Tahlequah. When she and my greatgrandfather went to see about it, they returned after 2-3 days because of the danger to him from people that were beating and killing "squaw men."
These were men that were married to Indians.
Would Gibson Bottom be bottom land from the Gibson Lake (if there is one) and does anybody know what became of that land if it wasn't claimed?

REEDER, Thomas Jefferson - Obit

weather321 — 2007-01-10 17:58:08Z

From the Medford,(OR) Mail Tribune 01-10-2007 at www.mailtribune.com

Photo included

Thomas Jefferson Reeder was born the second son of Harmon S. Reeder and Ruth Smets Reeder at Fort Gibson, Oklahoma on March 2, 1925. The family moved shortly thereafter to Tahlequah, Oklahoma, where Tom spent his youth attending elementary school and graduating from Bagley High School.

During World War II he joined the army and served on the European Front. After an honorable discharge he returned home and immediately enrolled in Northeastern College in Tahlequah where he completed his pre-law education. He then graduated from the University of Oklahoma law school in 1950.

Following graduation, Tom moved to Oregon, where his family now resided. He was a member of both the Oregon and Oklahoma bar. His first position in Oregon was in Salem, as an assistant attorney general for the state. He later moved to Medford where he ran for and was elected to the office of District Attorney for Jackson County. Following that, he established a private practice, retiring in 1993. He then served for three years at the Center for Non-Profit Legal Services.

Tom took an active interest in his community, serving on the School Board of District 549C, among other positions. He was active politically and served as Jackson County District Chairman for the Democratic Party. He was also quite proud of serving as Southern Oregon's chairman for Robert Kennedy's campaign for president.

Tom was a devoted reader of history and always interested in historical figures. He is best remembered for his keen love of jazz (particularly Miles Davis and Bill Evans); his fondness for a dry Martini and good conversation; his sense of humor; his slightly unorthodox golf swing and the many years he spent playing golf with his friends and sons; his love of gardening; and his joy in preparing marvelous meals for family and friends. He truly embraced life and will be missed not only by his family but by his many friends from all walks of life.

At Tom's request there will be no public memorial. A private internment has been held.

Tom is survived by his wife, of 55 years, Mary; their children, Thadd, Jefferson, Erich and Heidi; daughter-in-law, Elise and granddaughters, Gabriella and Haley. He was preceded in death by his parents, infant son, Thomas Matthew and brother, Harmon. Surviving brothers and sisters are Gwen, Joel, Walter, Harry, Rob and Jane.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Center for Non-Profit Legal Services, Inc. 225 West Main Street Medford, Oregon, zip code 97501.

I am attempting to go further back than Roach and Nancy.
On the Dawes, Roach, Nancy, John W. (and all other siblings) listed Vian, OK as residence.
Naome Lee (my grandmother)attended the Dwight Mission School (in OK, not AR.)
My father tells me we are in someway linked to the Bearpaw.
I am also under the impression that I had an ancestor(s) in or around Conway, AR.
My father also tells me our ancestors were "Old Settlers"

Again, any leads or information will be treasured and passed down for generations to come.

I am looking for information on Francis Latty Latta nee Scott. I know she was alive in 1879 in the Cherokee nation. The last census record I can find on her was for 1870 in Pineville, McDonald, Missouri. I am hoping to find out when and where she died. I have a copy of a statement she gave on behalf of Benjamin Brackett to prove he was Cherokee. That was given in Jul 1879.

1910 Census State Census Surname Buxton

lineage_84 — 2007-01-05 04:09:28Z

I have read with much interest in the Cherokee board and by no direct claims to be any but many of the people on the board seem to have a vast amount of knowledge and would like to request some direction. I know that there is a huge difference between any state rolls compared to the official Dawes Rolls. I have a census record for a state roll(Louisiana) from 1910 that indicates an ancestor and his family are specifically listed as Indian and was "told" that it was believed to be Cherokee. I think the advantage of living in Oklahoma is the vast documentation that is here in our great state, where does a person even begin to look to find out for sure what tribe a person would be from? If anyone could give me any
direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Carey family from Hulbert

t_barnes67 — 2006-12-23 05:24:33Z

My great grandfather was Dick Carey. He was born about 1890 and his family was from Hulbert. We believe his father's name was Aaron Carey and that some of his brothers were named Jesse, James and/or Jim. His mother's name might have been Polly.

As an adult, Dick lived in the Wagoner and Mayes county areas and was married to Nancy Fisher. They had nine children together before he was hit and killed by a car in 1937.

Any information on Dick, his parents, grandparents or siblings would be greatly appreciated.

edt0705 — 2007-06-27 05:23:42Z

Don't know if anyone is around on this post ... but it's worth a try.

My GGGM was Nannie Jane Ferrell (who was at least 1/2 Choctaw Indian - went through the Trail of Tears with other Choctaw & Cherokee). She married Charles Freeman Bonner and had many children - my GGM, Carrie Louise Bonner was one of them. Carrie married John Daniel Gordon and had several children - my GM, Armede Goron was one of them. Armede married Lester "Richard" Wooten and had several children - my mother, Barbara Flo Wooten being one of them.

I am looking for any other information, especially birth dates, birth places, and other relevant information.

Kindy cool if we're related, huh?

Hulda, dau of L.P. Marler and Mary Walker told her grand nephew her mom and dad were buried at Blue Springs Cemetery at Gideon. Mary died in 1920 after census was taken according to papers filed after her death. We have looked for marked stone but suspect they are buried with unmarked stones. Am planning a trip over after "Tic" season.

Get on the okgenweb site, then Craig County site for more information. Cost me $10 but it was worth it. Been looking for 10 years.

Re: Moodys, OK

I'm also working on this Marler Line. Mary died ca 1920 later in year after census, and is probably buried in unmarked grave at Blue Springs Cemetery at Gideon. Her daughter Flora married Andrew W. Moyer February 1907 as I just got their marriage certificate back. I have a picture of Flora and Hulda in later years. Hulda told a grand nephew her mom and dad were buried there. We looked but can't find a marked stone.

Hi Deborah,

We don't know much about my gggrandmother. One census has her birthplace listed as Alabama, I don't know where. My ggrandfather, her son was born in Newton Co., TX c.1867. So she was possibly around the same age as your ggrandmother. I don't know how to look for her, I dont know her maiden name or anything. I can't find my ggrandfather in any census until 1900. Wish I could be of more help to you...sorry. Good luck in your search. God bless.

She came to Texas with her first husband who was killed in a train accident, Then she married my great-grandfather-Charles Albrecht. He adopted her son, William. Do you think they knew each other? Can you tell me more about the reservation or why they came down here? Was it part of the Trail of Tears?

JORDON/JORDAN/SHADWICK/HALE

raconteur27 — 2006-03-10 06:45:19Z

I am searching for information on the Jordon/Shadwick/Hale lines in my family. Here is some of the info I have:

Cisero (also spelled: Cicero; as well as Sirus & Cyrus on 1880 AR census') Jordan...married Mary E. Shadwick. Cisero was born in 1826, in TN and died in 1916 and is buried at Buffington Cemetery in Sallisaw. I do not know where Mary is buried.

The Shadwick line, through Mary, is her mother: Catharine Miller, b. abt. 1810 in TN and her father: Hardy Shadwick, b. in TN.

Specifically, my search is centered around Cisero & Mary's last child.......Thomas (Tom) Jordan. Thomas married Leona (Hale) Downing, it was her second marriage. They had two sons together, Rufus Cicero Jordon, my husbands grandfather, b. in 1910 and died in 1958; and his brother, Albert Jordon, b. 1913 and d. in 1983. Rufus had 3 half-brothers: 2 Downings and 1 Womack? Don't know how that name got in there.

However, Thomas had a brother named Benjamin Franklin Jordan, b. 1874; and twin siblings-boy & girl named George Washington Jordan and Mary Cathrine Jordan, born 1-21-1878. George is buried at Short Cem. in LeFlore county.

Any information about Tom would be tremendously helpful! Thanks so much...Debbie

Re: Thomas A. Johnson Family of Tahlequah

AltonRayJohnson — 2005-08-20 05:54:23Z

I am related to a Thomas Johnson of Tahlequah who was
listed as Roll #21341 on the Dawes Rolls in 1880. He was
then married to Mary Johnson Dirteater and they had
3 children who was Nancy, Clem, and Ora. don't know if
this is the same Thomas Johnson but you can let me know
if it is. I have some family history on this group.

Re: Thomas A. Johnson Family of Tahlequah

AltonRayJohnson — 2005-09-03 05:30:08Z

You are right. Mary was married to Thomas Johnson who died in 1904 she married Joe Dirteater in 1905. I have more information on this family but I am in the process of moving and my info is somewhere in boxesm right now.

One of the WHITE family lines of Cherokee County, OK

MiltonHodges — 2005-07-06 21:45:49Z

Looking for info - and to make contact with - my relatives who moved to Cherokee County, Oklahoma from Arkansas County , Arkansas between 1880 and 1900. Thomas J. White and his wife Elizabeth (Hodges) White together with their children Ralph B., Frances E., Nancy Eula and Mary E. appear on the 1900 census for Township 16 W., R. 21 East, Indian Territory, Cherokee Nation, Oklahoma. Thomas and Elizabeth were born in Mississippi, Ralph, Frances and Nancy were born in Arkansas and Mary was born in Indian Territory.

In 1910 they are all listed in the census for Crittenden Township, Cherokee Co. with Ralph married to a Maggie ? and the are shown to have a daughter Clara.

In 1920 the Crittenden Township census shows Thomas and Elizabeth living alone. Ralph, Maggie and Clara are still together in the same home but no other children are listed. And, I have found out that a Frances E. White married a Ben M. Witt and had a son Burgess. They are also listed in the 1920 Census.

In 1930 Thomas and Elizabeth do not show up in the census. Ralph, Maggie and Clara are listed in the Tahlequah City census while Ben M., Fannie, and Burgess are still shown in Crittenden Township.

I would be very appreciative for any additional info and to especially find a living relative. Any help on tracking down Nancy, Mary, Clara and Burgess would be very helpful.

Thanks very much.

Census Lookup, please

RandallBaker1 — 2006-03-13 20:44:33Z

If anyone could be so kind, I need a census lookup for Cherokee County, Oklahoma.
I am interested in looking for my gr-grandparents in the 1910 and 1920 Census in Cherokee County. I don't know exactly what years they would have lived there, but my grandmother was born in Park Hill in 1918.

Their names were Ira Grant and Mary Lee TRETT and my grandmother was Rosie Lee TRETT, who would have been about 2 in 1920.

I would certainly appreciate any assistance someone might be able to give me on this.

Thanks,
Randall Baker

CAMPBELLS or TRETT, in or around Park Hill

RandallBaker1 — 2006-03-13 20:44:33Z

I'm wondering if anyone might have info on either TRETTS or CAMPBELLS living in Cherokee County, Oklahoma. Particularly, in or around Park Hill.

My great grandparents were Ira Grant TRETT and Mary Lee CAMPBELL TRETT. They were originally from around Izard County, Arkansas. I don't know exactly when they ended up in Oklahoma, but my grandmother was born there in 1918. Her name was Rosie Lee TRETT. I don't think they were in Oklahoma for too many years, but they ended up back in Arkansas, in Clay County.

I'm interested to know if there were any other TRETTS or CAMPBELLS in that area, which might help explain why they moved to Oklahoma. Family tradition says that there was Indian heritage from that part of my family, but there is no particular evidence of it. My mom and her family never really knew much about that side of the family, so no one really knows the answers to my questions.

Do any of these surnames or anything else ring a bell to someone? If so, I'd really like to hear from you.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Randall Baker

Cemetery help, please.

RandallBaker1 — 2006-03-13 20:44:33Z

I need some help with cemeteries in Cherokee County. Has some sort of index been made of the cemeteries there? The best I can determine, my great-grandmother died there and, I presume, was buried there. I have no idea where, though.

Her name was Mary Lee Trett (maiden name Campbell). She died sometime between 1918 and 1924. My grandma (her daughter) was born in Park Hill in January of 1918, so I am going on the assumption that's where the family lived when Mary Lee died. What cemeteries are in the Park Hill area?

Any help at all on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Randall Baker

Re: Cemetery help, please.

RandallBaker1 — 2006-03-13 20:44:33Z

Thanks, Violet. My digging around led me to think that Park Hill and Ross were the only cemeteries in Park Hill. There is an online index of Ross Cemetery, but I don't think there is for Park Hill Cemetery. So, it may be something that doesn't get answered for a while, unless I go to Oklahoma.
Thanks for the help.

Randall

Re: Cemetery help, please.

RandallBaker1 — 2006-03-13 20:44:33Z

That would be wonderful if you have a chance to check, as long as it's not too much trouble. As I said, I'm not positive she is buried in Park Hill. It's just my best deduction, based on what I know.

Thanks,
Randall

Park Hill Cemetery

RandallBaker1 — 2006-04-11 23:44:54Z

Can anyone suggest how I might get information on someone buried in the Park Hill Cemetery? I have looked online for any sort of index or transcription of burials there, but have come up empty. I called directory assistance to see if there was a phone number for the cemetery, but they say there is no such listing.

My great-grandmother, Mary Lee (Campbell) Trett, is supposed to be buried in the Park Hill Cemetery and I am trying to find out the birth and death dates for her. I do know she died in 1918 and was living in Park Hill and I was told by a relative that this is the cemetery she was buried in. Does someone out there know how I might obtain this info from the cemetery, short of driving the hundreds of miles to see for myself?

I'd sure appreciate any help or guidance on this.

Thanks,

I am looking for any information concerning J. Edwards Harper DeWitt, born September 12, 1909 died November 22, 1909 in Tahlequah, Cherokee County, Oklahoma. All I have is an entry in the Family Bible. I do not know how long my grandparents, Bruce and Nannie DeWitt lived in the Tahlequah area. I have looked thru most of the cemetery listings, he may have an unmarked grave. But shouldn't there be some type of record concerning this child. The family is not American Indian.

Re: White Oak Cemetery

MichaelMetje22 — 2005-09-23 21:08:29Z

I was reading your memo and noticed the name Pigeon Hanson. He was some how connected to my family and I'm still not sure how. My gggrandmother was Martha E. Hanson who married Cicero Turnage. Her sister Sophia (also called "Dallas") Hanson married Cicero's brother Elija Turnage. I have a census record showing a "Coley P. Hanson" and his wife Mattie living with Elija and Sophia during the 1900 census. He is listed their as Elija's brother in law (which would make him Sophia Hanson's brother). My grandfather said that he found a copy of Pigeon Hanson on the Drake Roll (indian rolls) with Coley P. Hanson ("P" believed to stand for "Pigeon") on the same family card, but I don't know if Pigeon Hanson was his brother or father or what. I am specificly looking for my indian heritage and I believe that finding answers about Pigeon Hanson would help me find where the Cherokee blood in my family comes from. If you have any answers as to who he was, his family relations (brothers, sisters, children) it would be extremely helpful. If our family lines connect I would be more than happy to give you as much info as I have on this side. I really would appreciate any help you can give. Thank you so much.

Many thanks for any information on White Oak in general.

Sickey SANDERS in Welling, OK

My great grandfather was a Cherokee named Sickey SANDERS, aka Cicery or Sick-a-ta-wia. According to one of the Pioneer Papers interviews, Sickey had a "place" on which the interviewee worked in the late 19th century, near what is now Welling, OK. Can anyone advise me how I might ascertain just what land Sickey SANDERS owned?
Many thanks for any thoughts or ideas.

Getting an obit in Tahlequah

Ginger_Goodell — 2005-09-25 00:08:03Z

I don't live in Cherokee CO. However, if I wanted to track down more on a person who died in 1979 in OK, I would do two things. I would write the State Dept of Health and request his death certificate for %10. They want the county and the date of death, and you seem to have both. I would also contact the library at Tahlequah and ask if anyone has done an index of obituaries from the local paper (Henryetta Library in Okmulgee Co. has such an index, which I've used. For a fee of $1, they've copied the mf page of the newspaper for me). If the answer is no, I would ask if anyone at the library would be willing to do a search of obituaries for the month of April. Or if anyone at the local genealogy club would do such a thing? Good luck.

I am a great-great grandson of Lorenzo and Mary (Walker) Marler.

If you are not familiar with where Gideon is located, it is north of Tahlequah, OK on Highway 82. There is a cemetery at Gideon called the Blue Springs Cemetery. If they are buried there, there is not a marker for them that I have been able to find.

Lena Carpenter, Roy Simmons

I am trying to find out anything I can about Lena Carpenter and Roy Simmons. They were my real grandparents. This has been a long search to find them. I know Roy remarried, but do not have much information on Lena. Her father might have been William Carpenter, born abt. 1883 and her mother Nina born abt.1886. Lena's family lived in Cherokee County, in the 1910 census.

Children of Addison Enoch & Delilah Creekmore are : 1.Carol Simmons, Abt. 1893, 2. Calvin B Simmons, 24 May 1894, married Beulah Howard, 3.Claude Hampton Simmons, abt. 1900, married Elva Sarah Morgan, 4. Roy R. Simmons, 1903, Abt. 1905, 1st marriage Lena Carpenter, 2nd marriage Lela Mae White, on Aug 29, 1929 5. Effie Simmons. Abt. 1905, married FNU Ullrich, 6. Susie Simmons, Abt. 1906, married Troy King, 7.Delsie V. Simmons, 09 March 1907, married, Harvey Walkup, 8. Elsie Simmons, 09 March 1907, married John Emerson Creekmore. Enoch and Delilah lived in or around Sallisaw, Sequoyah County, OK, they were both born in Crawford County, AR. Does anyone know anything about these families?
