Hello Rhonda I have found nothing to indicate that Sarah and J H Eddings was married. 22 october 1880 Allen Singleton Eddings, Singleton is a Pidcock name and I have read that Catherine is buried in Grayson County,Sarah Bell probably wouldn't have named a pidcock name. If you remember Singleton is my G Grandpa's name. He was named for a Clerk in the Courthouse in Crawford Missouri who went extra mile to get Rosannah pidcock Mathews, her husband pension. I have no idea where Catherine. The only JOhn i found in Occela Cemetery in custer is a 10 year old child. I had read that J H is buried in one of the surrounding counties. I have looked and looked haven't found his remains yet. I did find Allen Singleton Eddings living with a sister Mabel Mae in Bennington Oklahoma. I think they grew up with a family member but don't know which one. I know Lyle my G Grandfather was living there for short time but not long was abt the time Zed Maws Pidcock (his son)died
from ruptured appendix and died from (spelling went south) however it was from infection dumping into body cavity was a very hard infection hard to treat now. I feel Baker died abt 1876 in Washington Arkansas, I have no idea where he is buried. I know that Nancy was living next door to Florence Mae Holt and family., Baker Caswell Eddings and Mary G Pidcock she was listed as Eddings also but Nancy was named the mother. I know they probably lived pretty close to the border of Grayson and Collin, Nancy was living in Collin., I also know that John Henry was held in Virginia after he was captured in CW the second time he was released after the War. But was held until in the area. From Virginia to Severs County Arkansas is a long way. He probably had his feet pretty much to get back. He was probably very hungry and probably very week so it took some time I feel that he got back and he and Margaret Catherine Married maybe 1866 since Aaron was born 1867 and then Lucinda Elizabeth came before the 1870 census, I have seen nothing to prove the other dates however he was single when he joined the military. He signed up in 1862, I feel catherine was in Hospital maybe confined. There was T B in those days in Texas yes they kept them in hospital her burial may have been in cemetery on the hospital grounds.

Back to the lady in Crescent Cemetery she shares a Headstone with Husband Franklin E Smith He passed in 1919 need to find a marriage record for Virginia someone may have made mistake I did to if this is your lady. I did find her husband in the census with her daughter Mary lee but hubby was gone 1920 I think it was. Marriage record might make some sense. But unless you can post and some kind sole in Logan county might have I If its Franklin that might just turn into something.

William M. Howe family, Lawton City circa 1910

mstgaudens — 2012-11-24 17:49:29Z

Hello:

I am looking for information on William M. Howe, his wife, Clara and his daughter, Jessie. Originally from Indiana they were residents of Lawton City, Comanche Township in 1910. William was a merchant. Jessie was an artist who later lived in Los Angeles, California with her mother in the 1930's. Jessie married several times and her later surnames were Seely and Robison. Any info would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Re: Oklahoma Children's Home Society - Dorothy Lee Mored

eric_harshman — 2012-11-06 14:33:12Z

I found this posting about the Oklahoma Children's Home Society on Ancestry.com. I have a similar story. My husband's grandmother was placed in the home and adopted from there. Her information is below. If anyone has any information about records from the home, I would be greatly interested!! My email is shelly_harshman@q.com, and I live in Idaho. Thank you!!

Dorothy Lee Mored, born 17 Dec 1922 in Oklahoma City, OK
Birthmother: Willie Jewell Cleveland Mored, born 2 Mar 1905
Birthfather: Parfirio Mored, (possibly immigrated from Mexico with his brother Ore Mored in 1915)
Birthparents married: 6 Mar 1920, Caddo County, OK (I have a copy of the marriage licence)
At some point, Dorothy is given to the Oklahoma Children's Home Society.
Adoption: 15 Oct 1925, in Oklahoma County, OK (I have a copy of the Adoption Decree - she was 2 years, 10 months old)
Adoptive parents: Henry H. Krebs and Julia Leona Dennis Krebs
Child's new name: Colleen Frances Krebs
An attorney for the society appeared before the court and consented to the adoption, leading us to believe the parents had legally given up parental rights earlier.
The birthmother's name on the adoption decree is "Willie Mored". She remarried a few years later and had two children and died in 1997.

Colleen grew up to be my husband's grandmother. She passed away in 1997, she married three times and had ten children.

I am looking for information about when/why Dorothy was given to the Children's Home, and whether there were any siblings with her. Her birthmother, Willie, was 15 years and 2 weeks old when she married, but Dorothy wasn't born until almost two years later. Willie's mother, Dollie Goldston Cleveland, signed as a witness on Willie & Parfirio's marriage license. A license that lists her as 17 years old. A huge fib - we have multiple census records and her social security death index record that clearly establish her age. Family rummor leads us to believe there was another sibling. We think she may have gotten pregnant, married quickly, later had another child (Dorothy) and then something happened to her husband and she was forced to give up the children. Or possibly, the older child had already died by the time she had to give up Dorothy.

Re: Obituary or Cemetery Lookup

NeldaBrown214 — 2012-10-25 09:49:51Z

Obit found for Mrs. Phoebe Alice Lafon in The Guthrie Daily Leader, Guthrie, OK, Friday July 14, 1967, page 8, column 6, as follows:
Services for Mrs. Phoebe Alice Lafon, 82, longtime Orlando area resident, are scheduled for 2 p.m. Saturday at the Orlando Christian Church. Rev. Dean Acuff will officiate and burial will be in Grace Hill cemetery, Perry, directed by Smith Funeral Home.
Mrs. Lafon died Thursday at her home in Orlando. She was born July 15, 1884 in Pawnee County, Nebraska, and had lived in the Orlando area for more than 75 years. She was a member of the Orlando Christian Church.
Survivors are two sons, Earl Lafon, Orlando, and finis Lafon, Oklahoma City; two grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

I was not able to find an obituary for Harry Lafon. You might want to obtain a death certificate. OR - contact the Noble County Genealogy Society at ncgsmail@rocketmail.com since Grace Hill Cemetery is in that County. They may have a listing. It would seem logical that Mr. Lafon might be buried there.

I found in the 1890 Smith's First Directory of the Territory on page 278 "Alex H. Lafon" (would this be Harry?) In Payne County at the legal description of his property SE quarter of Section 6, Township 19 North Range 1 West. This is about two miles east of Orlando. Logan, Payne and Noble counties are adjoining each other in that particular area.

Grace Hill Cemetery is located in the SE quarter of Section 23, Township 21 North Range 1 West, so you see it was not far from the Lafon's farm.

Seeking info about J. B. Lambert

johnlambert461 — 2012-07-09 18:53:26Z

I am looking for knowledge about the parents, siblings and first wife of Frank John Lambert, also known as Jean Baptiste Lambert. His ancestors were French-Canadian as you may have guessed. He was born on August 28, 1852 in Skowhegan, Somerset county, Maine. He was married twice, his second wife’s name was Agnes Taylor. They were married on August 20, 1895 in Howard, Kansas. On the marriage application he was listed as J. B. and gave Logan,Oklahoma as his address. Their children’s names were Opie Reed Lambert, born in 1895 and Olin Harry Lambert (my father) born in 1897. They lived in Blandinsville and Lewistown, Illinois. Frank John was a barber. I know he had children by the first marriage and some of them lived in the Chicago area at one time. One of the Chicago Lamberts was in the lamp business, I believe. If any of this sounds familiar, please let me know. Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated.

My husband, Darryl Baker, and you are very possibly related. His great grandfather is also Elmer Baker, who passed away and Minnie remarried Arthur Rhoads. His grandfather is the second Elmer Baker and I have been researching his family tree and been stumped until recently. I believe Elmer (1863-1891) is the child of Charles Baker and Eliza J. Baker.

This person had a brother, Scott Oliver who died in 1988, his parents Loretta and Charles Clark Oliver, grandparents were Beatrice & William H. Martin.

Obit or Notice of Death

Pcreighton603 — 2012-03-13 01:21:15Z

I am still attempting to locate info on the death of William Oliver Smith
who is buried in Summit View Cem Sec 1 Lot 61 Block 36. I have talked
with the cemetery and they said the only info that they have is:
William Oliver Smith 15 Dec 1932. This could be grave opening date or
death date. Would someone check the newspapers around that date for
a notice of death or an obit? He is buried with the Robert W. Smith family
and I believe that he is the William Oliver Smith that was born to Robert and
his first wife. I will gladly pay for costs to provide this info.
Thank you!

Re: meaning of the name Novalee

1_novalie — 2012-01-12 21:05:41Z

My name is Novalie (pronounced Nova-lee)
I was born Feb 15 -64
My research shows that our name is derived from the mid-west Native American Hopi indians - (AZ) and means Butterfly.
There is a movie and a song that is centered around our name. A love story of siblings separated - one raised by indians and one raised with his white family.

I hope this helps.
