I am looking for more information on R. Stuckul, who was born in Pennsylvania and is found in 1905 and after in Oklahoma. I offer the following documentation.
Stuckuel, R.S. age 31 married Troxel, Nellie age 23 on 12 May 1905 in Wheeler, Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory, Book I page 163. On the 1910 census, Nellie has returned to her Troxel family with son, Ralph Stuchel age 4 and is listed as a widow. The census indicates that Ralph's father was born in Pennsylvania. Ralph will later be adopted by his step-father, Edward Atkinson whom his mother married in 1915. I do not believe Nellie was actually a widow but had probably been abandoned or she left her husband and moved to northern Oklahoma with her parents.
On the 1910 census for Carter County, Oklahoma (originally part of the Chickasaw Nation) Robert H. Stuchul, age 36 born in PA, is a lodger with the widow Sallie Lewis Dodson family, is listed as single and is a blacksmith. He is the right age to be R. S. Stuckuel who married Nellie Troxel.
On the 1920 census for Carter County, Oklahoma, Robert Stuchul age 50 born PA has married Eliza Barbara Boggess Rector Hyde and they live in Ardmore, OK and he is a contractor. He is now 4-5 years older than the Robert Stuchul listed on the 1910 census but I believe he is the same person.
On the 1930 census for Carter County, Oklahoma, Robert S. Stuchul age 61 born PA is still living in Ardmore with his wife Eliza. He is an oil and gas well driller. He indicates that he was 21 years old at his first marriage, which would have placed that event around 1889-1890, which would match up with the Robert G. Stuchell and wife Blanch who are on the 1900 Indiana Co, PA census, Saltsburg Dist 62 listed with 5 children. This census indicates they have been married 10 years and his occupation is listed as oil well driller.
The 1880 only shows one Robert Stuchall near the right age to be the Stuckuel I am searching for and he is the son of Alexander and Martha Coleman Stuchell. on the 1870 he is listed as Robert S, not Robert E. as is written on the 1880 census. He would have been named after Martha's father, Robert Coleman.
I know there are other Stuchell males who could be the father of the R. S. who married Nellie Troxel in Oklahoma. In your research, have you found any other alternatives for me?
Thank you for your time.
