Love Co. OK. Looking for info on graves of Sarah Hanna and Christopher Wainscott. They were buried there before state-hood. Her maiden name was Boone. Her sister Rebecca married his brother Thorton Wainscott

C'mon, someone answer here. I'm curious to see if this Love Co. Wainscott is attached to the one that married into the Love Co. Willinghams back around the turn of the century....Jimmy.

Joe, There are a couple of Wainscott headstones in the very southeast corner of Legate Cemetery in northeast Love Co. I am sorry I didn't make note of them when I was there this summer. My dad pointed them out to me and said he couldn't remember why the name sounded familiar to him. Benton Boone and Lourane Wainscott's oldest daughter, Mary Ellen "Mae". married my uncle Claude Renick at Hoxbar in 1901. Benton and Lourane were listed two houes away from my gr-grandpanents, Robert Walker "Bob" and Ellen "Tince" Morris in the 1900 census. I am surprised they are not listed on the Bill Hamm's cemetery listing. I hope this may be of some help.

I am going to have to review my notes, but Christopher Wainscott is my great great great grandfather. The Willinghams and the Wainscotts were families that "trveled" together. Off top of my head, can't remember the history of Chris and Sarah... but their son Robert (Bob) died on Chisolm trail one story says. Robert and wife ??? Willingham lived in Bowie Texas area.

I noticed your note on the message board ffrom last year. Did you ever get the information you wanted? Christopher was the one that died on the cattle drive. Chris and Hannah were my great,great grandparents. I am out of Benton Boone line also, C.Howard was my grandfather. My dad W.G. "Doc" Wainscott spent over 50 years working on many lines, and I have spent about 20. Dad died in 1997, and I have all of his records. I can help you if you tell me what you need. The Wainscotts, Willinghams, and McDonalds were all related.
Sincerely--Michael Wainscott

Very intersting. Not sure now what I was searching out. Interesting I foun a researcher that has a book on the wainscott's. Including the first wainscott in US Richard-- who was an indentures servent sent to the colonies in 1725. He served 7 years.

The story is chris died of pneumonia. I have made contact with a current chris wainscott, mainly talk to his wife Joann.

I am writing a novel and one of the "bad guys" I named Bill Wainscott. Have to been to the Denver TX cemetery in Montague Co? It is filled with wainscott's, willinghams, mcdonalds, messers etc. My gr gr gr grandmother was Sarah Willingham.

Where do u live?

Thank you for the reply. Richard came over in 1728 (not in 1725) indentured to a John Taylor. His time was over in 1735 and we see him moving to Virginia, North Carolina, and back to Virginia. Their land in Rowan Co. N.C., backed up to the land of the Boone family.
I saw your message on a board about graves in Legate, Oklahoma. Some of my line are buried there. Chris and Hannah were my great, great-grandparents. One of their sons, Benton Boone Wainscott was my great-grandfather, then Cecil Howard Wainscott, William Gragg Wainscott, then myself, Michael Wainscott. Christopher did die on the cattle drive, but we don't know anything about Hannah's death and burial. I have been to the Denver Cemetery a few times, and it does have more Wainscotts than Willinghams, McDonalds, or Messers. I am familar with Sarah Willingham if you need more information.
Could you please give me information about Chris Wainscott and his wife Joann. I can't recall their names in mine and Dad's work. He passed away in 1997 and collabrated a lot with Perry Sutterfield, Ellen Rogers, Bo Wainscott, and many, many others. He had 38 affiliated lines on his and my mother's lines traced back.
I retired from teaching two years ago, and live in Denton, Texas, about 35 miles north of Dallas, just below Cooke Co. and the Red River.
Don't hestitate in asking for anything that might help you. Once again, please let know about Chris and Joann Wainscott.
Respectively---a "cousin"---Michael Wainscott

Interesting. My late husband was born in Love County, OK, and had many

relatives who lived in Cooke County.We have learned little information about Sarah Jane Winscoatte/Wainscott who
was born Nov 24, 1844 in TN--maybe Seveir County. Sarah married Silas Seth Scarbrough Thornton about 1861 in TN. She died about 1903 in Denison, TX.

One of their daughters, Irzella Thamer (Thornton) Weathers died in early 1936 in Love County, OK.

I will look through my information and see what I can find. I am out of Christopher and Hannah Boone Wainscott line and they lived in that area around 1860 until 1905 When son Benton Boone Wainscott moved to Young Co. Tx. By the way, Chris brother Thornton lived around Bosque Co. also. Benton 2nd wife LieuRaney Rogers was from Walnut Springs. Also my grandmother Lavonia Belle "Lomer" Alexander Wainscott was born in Valley View, Cooke Co., and then they moved to Thackersville in Love Co. in 1897, then to Young Co. in 1907.
I will look and see what I find. Dad worked our families lines for over 50 years before he passed away in 1997, and I have been trying to continue on.
Respectfully---Michael Wainscott
