I am currently searching for information on my gg-uncle, Joseph J. NORRID. I have a copy of his will that shows that he was living in Muldrow, Sequoyah Co., OK in 1892 and 1893. His will was filed 2/3/1893 in Crawford Co., AR. My records indicate that Joseph was born 10/31/1847 in TN and died in Muldrow, OK in 1893. He is buried in the old Bodine Cemetery, 43 Community, Crawford Co., AR. His parents were Bassell NORROD and Elizabeth REED NORROD. He had a sister, Susan NARD MOONEYHAM. This surname has undergone several changes. Joseph enlisted in the 4th Arknasas Infantry under the name of Joseph J. NARD.

He was married twice. The second time on 8/6/1886 to Susie Breeden spelling his name then as Joseph J. NORRID. His children are listed as William (Willie) B., Emma Lee NORRID PAYNE, James L., Maudie E., Obed, and Pyrtle O.

I would very much appreciate any information on this family. I can be reached at liddiard@esn.net

Thank you, Leslie Liddiard

There are several Norrids burried around Muldrow in Lees Chapel Cemetery and in Fleetwood Cemetery. I believe Joseph's son Willie B married a distant cousin of mine, Mina Jackson

my family's name is Nored... about 4 generations before they spelled it Norrid. I don't know a whole lot, I have most of my info on family tree maker at home and i am at work now. e-mail me @ sfly59@aol.com if interested.

Looking for John Henry Norrid born in Oklahoma Indian Territory, born 12 Dec 1881, married to Lida or Lydia Higgins. Can you help or give me a direction to search for him?
