Birdie married Frank Watson. Myrtle and Birdie's brother, Henry RUTH married Clemmie Mae HARDER. Their sister, Weacie married an EASON. I have lots more.

My husband is Ramon Ruth and his father is Lloyd Ruth who married Myrtis Augusta Allen, his father' father was Henry Ruth who married Albertine Hautau. They are of German descent and this is as far as I have gotten. Seems like there is no one left in the family that really knows any more than this.

I am the grand niece of Frank Watson. We spent a lot of time with Uncle Frank.
He lived in Broken Bow. My grandmother Edith Watson Wells was his sister. He also has a sister named Ruby Watson. He had four children. Two of the sons names were Clifton and Curtis. His father's name was Jim and his stepmother's name was Georgie(spelling may not be correct). He is buried at Oak Hill Cemetery in McCurtain County. I believe that we may have some pictures of him. I can check the next time I am at Broken Bow. I remember Uncle Frank vividly to this day. He was wonderful with children. We always thought of him as a second grandfather. If you have any other information about his family please e-mail me
