Hello Greg, I think I recall the name Pose, but I will check that out. My Grandmother came from Virginia and was born approx. 1892. The area of Virginia was close to the Tennessee border, but I'll check. She had brothers and sisters. Margaret or Peggy(as she was known) was one and maybe the only sister and my Grandmother was Catherine Rebecca Ann Akers or Katherine Rebecca Ann Akers. She moved to Frederick, Oklahoma in her early teens with her Mother and Father and siblings. I am away on vacation but will check out her Father's name when I return home.

Oklahoma is ironic because my father always told me that Pose had a brother that went to Oklahoma and lived on a Indian Reservation. I hope you do recall the name Pose. He is a great big brickwall for me. Thanks, Greg ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan H.

Hi Greg My grandmother's father's name was Nathan. And I know they went to Oklahoma, but to Frederick, Oklahoma which is Tillman County and to my knowledge not an Indian reservation. Hope this helps.
