Looking for an obit or some info on the family of Thomas Woolman, born 1856, died June 26, 1937 in Vinita, Craig Co., OK. Said to have married 3 times, father of 17 children. Oldest son Jesse Alvin Woolman born 1879, died after 1930, also lived in Vinita.

I am not related to the Woolman family, but do have family info on them in my genealogy database as they are known to my family. Since I cannot write directly to you, if you are interested in the info that I have please write to me directly and I will email it to you. The page says that you have to be replied to privately, but there is no link (after I sign in)to send you this email. Just offering info. Eddene Hightower Thompson formerly of Vinita, OK

From the newspaper: THE VINITA LEADER, Craig Co., OK.
