This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: WHITFIELD - SMITH Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/4U.2ADI/561.566 Message Board Post: Kathleen, I failed to see the possible connection until tonight of WHITFIELD who married "Willie" SMITH and those in Stone County. Ran right into the WHITFIELDs who are married to LANCASTERs connected to me. Was James Worley WHITFIELD born in Indian Territory at location of present-day Lawton in Comanche County, Oklahoma? And is he descended from a FELTON female? Look forward to seeing your post on the Message Board -- which will be sent to the Baxter Mailing List. Thank you. Peggy {King} Truesdell Tulsa, Oklahoma
