Searching for dates of birth and death of Charles O. Frye (born September 1859 in New York) and wife, Vandella M. A. Burke Frye (born June 1860 in Alabama). I do not know if there is a series of cemetery books for Tulsa County, Oklahoma or not?

Charle O. Frye and Vandella M. A. Burke were married on 15 May 1878 in Sebastian County, Arkansas, and settled in Joplin, Jasper County, Missouri before finally settling in Tulsa County, Oklahoma. Vandella M. A. Burke Frye was a daughter of Elihue Preston Perry Burke (6 April 1836-29 September 1896) and his wife, Miriam/Myriam J. Penninger Burke (born ca. 1841). Records indicate that Charles O. Frye died in Tulsa, Oklahoma during the 1920’s. I think that he and his family were buried in Tulsa County, Oklahoma. The children of Charles O. and Vandella M. A. Burke Frye were: Oscar B. Frye (born ca. 1883 in Missouri); Howard Frye (born ca. 1886 in Missouri); and Roy Frye (born ca. 1888 in Missouri).

I did check the funeral home book index and it does not show any listings for Charles O. or for Vandella, although they probably did die in Oklahoma. Look them up on the census records and they will show the approximate birth date and state where they were born. Only obit I was able to find on this family is for Roy, who died in November of 1930.
