" . . .Arthur i's a widowed brother." Who is Arthur Goodman ? ? ? - a brother of whom? Frank or Amanda ? 1920 Baker, Izard, County Arkansas Frank Cazort 48 Amanda Cazort 47 Major Cazort 21 Ona Cazort 18 Walter Cazort 16 Artie Cazort 13 Velmer Cazort 11 Nova Cazort 9 Alma Cazort 6 Arthur Goodman 54 Who is Arthur Goodman ? ? ? - a brother of whom? Is it Goodman or Goodwin ? ? ? Makes more sense Arthur is brother of Amanda. Making her a Goodman too??? However . . . I think this is also step-son of James Chesley Cozort - his 1st wife Priscilla Jane McCullough was 1st married to Arthur Goodwin b. 1838 England d. abt. 1870. Think I found this on rootsweb site that supported James' 2 marriages and census supports he is Wiliam A. Goodwin as Pricilla's child. Priscilla's son William A. Goodwin is killed in construction accident 1920 in NM. If I remember correctly, the construction company was owned by Cozort family that was based in OK. I think this came from Cozart (Surname) message board post that was like 8 years old.) This made sense to me too because I knew many left AR and went west for work in the 1920's. Way too much speculation here! I admit it! Marsha

I started working on this line because of a Cozort I met at my Uncle Noel Moser's 101 b'day party in Wiseman. He didn't think we were related, but I assured him - if he was related to my Uncle Noel that we were too. First thing I did was ask mom about them. She said there weren't any Cozorts around Wiseman, but there were some Cazorts. The way I see it . . . Soundex was invented way back before computerized geneaology. Vil'til - was Violet Hill Marston - was Morriston Ca'zort - was Cozort Kaysanger - was Kissinger ( . . . you get where I'm going here?) The family I am looking for was in Fulton & Izard Co. AR and over the state line in MO and varied the spelling even among brothers - Cozort, Cazort, Cozart. Generally this family's origins start around Salem and Wiseman. Starting with that one 1920 census Vera found, I have scoured obits and cemeteries in the area. 1920 Baker, Izard, County Arkansas Frank Cazort 48 Amanda Cazort 47 Major Cazort 21 Ona Cazort 18 Walter Cazort 16 Artie Cazort 13 Velmer Cazort 11 Nova Cazort 9 Alma Cazort 6 Arthur Goodman 54 Report below is strictly from obits and cemetery records 1 Frank Cozort .. +Amanda J.

Can someone tell me if this is the parents of Ruth Speak. Jessie Speak md Ellen Gillihan. So far I've not found out if Ruth Speak married. June, this one should be easy for you.
That's for sharing more about yourself and family. Forgive me, but (not gonna say it behind your back) you sound like one tough ole bird. If it doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger. You Knew Oral Roberts! I grew up with Oral Roberts on tv - seems like he came on Sunday morning after "The Rhoades Show". Mom is distant cousin of those Rhoades and was always on while we were getting ready for church. Oral Roberts was truly unique.and very charismatic! As a kid didn't know what to make of him - didn't fit the pattern of any preacher I knew. Has been interesting to follow ORU from inception to present. Thanks Peggy . . . .

Peggy, this is so very interesting. You should write more articles about your life. Really enjoyed this one.

Very interesting and I forwarded to Tereva. I suspect you worked in medical field. One of my uncles got lockjaw when he was about 70 -- he survived. I remember him being treated. I have three nieces ( who are sisters) and all three are nurses. I loved writing, then was good with shorthand and typing. My first higher education was in journalism, which I absolutely loved. I really wanted to be a court reporter but in those years the nearest schooling was in Kansas City. Circumstances in my family prohibited them supporting me to go to college. We had suffered great income loss when I was about 13 and my father was seriously injured in a tractor accident. He had cataract surgery on both eyes during the 40s and lost his peripheral vision (sight only replaced then by thick glasses) and when he turned the tractor at end of row, he misjudged and went tumbling down creek bank. This was in March before spring rains and water low. He was about half mile from house but my mother and neighbor were outside and heard him. She thought something was in chicken house and investigated. They heard him again and she went further to where she would be able to see him on tractor. Not seeing him, she asked neighbor to go back and call for help. She did and soon after my mother found him, an ambulance arrived and removed him (accompanied by my mother) to hospital in Broken Arrow, where he stayed for some time. I was on school bus and we met ambulance about half mile away. An uncommon sight, but quite a shock when our neighbor told me when I got off bus. His developed pneumonia. Anyway, I couldn't speak for about two weeks. I was last one left at home -- only one to milk cows and do chores. One of Daddy's brothers who lived and worked in Tulsa came often and helped me with planting, etc. Husband of one of my FINLEY cousins -- who went to his reward as a young man -- helped some. Until this time we had grain, hay fields, and "Market" garden and farmed 160 acres. We sold 80 acres at a "sacrifice" and it took some years for his convalescence. Fortunately, I won scholarship to "Oklahoma Women's College" at Chickasha where I studied journalism. But worked mostly in law -- one of my first jobs was in legal department at Seismograph Service. Then, I married attorney and worked in probate at county courthouse, which opened some doors along the way, so did legal and oil and gas work. That's a good part of my life history, Looking back, it was an interesting life. One of the best experiences I had was working for Charles A. KOTHE, who in his 80s when he testified in the Clarence THOMAS hearings. He was the finest gentleman and surely most brilliant I ever knew. He was labor law attorney for management and practiced in every U.S. labor court as well as its protectorates. He traveled a good deal of the time and we sometimes worked through the night and weekends. When he left the firm and I went to work for an oil and gas man, but still worked for him at his home. It was during this time he (w/ financial help of O. W. COBURN, father of U.S. senator who is doctor) that he began law school at Oral Roberts University. ORU later lost accreditation for law school. He had a wonderful personality. Sometimes at two or three in the morning, I would take my shorthand notes and say, "Mr. Kothe, I don't think we have a complete sentence here. He reacted with delight that I called it to his attention. I would read my notes and get it right. Sometimes he worked in his "bunny" (footed) pajamas. Sometimes his wife was out-of-town. Sometimes on weekends we went there to work. Yes, I saw Oral and his mother. The ROBERTS lived two or three miles south of us, towards Bixby, and Mrs. Evelyn ROBERTS came to our house to buy vegetables. Their livestock lived better than most people. Their farm later became Juniper Hills Nursery. My brother, first veterinarian in Oklahoma to enter strictly equine practice, lived in Okmulgee until about 1960. Oral's large herd was one he took care of, until he was traveling so much to Tulsa he relocated. People complained of Oral's vast holdings and it forced him to reduce them. The Kothes were Presbyterian and one son was Presbyterian minister in Las Vegas -- typed his sermons from cassettes. Mr. Kothe and my first husband (TRUESDELL) attended McCormick Seminary in Chicago, but at different times. (I somehow managed to marry two Presbyterians, was always lukewarm member of CofC.) It was during those years that Mr. Kothe appeared as actor in a black and white movie, which he sometimes viewed during his travels. It was his wife Janet who first urged me to quit my job and work for him at ORU, pointing out my children could attend there tuition-free. Mrs, Kothe said he was "comfortable" working with me. If I had taken their offer, I too would have known Anita HILL and Clarence THOMAS. Mr. Kothe maintained notebooks of "Orchid Letters" received from churches, companies, etc. where he spoke as a motivational speaker. In his later years, I would call from time to time, and ask if he remembered me, and he would say, "I'm one of your greatest fans." Always gave me a "warm fuzzy." He had such a great mind and so knowledgeable in labor law, I'd think his mind should somehow be saved for posterity. His vocabulary was massive and he would often send me to his his huge dictionary kept on a stand. When he died, I still lived in Tulsa and attended his funeral. He is truly one of the most "unforgettable" characters I was privileged to know.

California seems to be hit hardest, but not an epidemic. Older adults don't know they have it and before they go to the doctor have shared it to other adults who have missed some vaccinations too. We didn't get all the vaccines in our early childhood shots that are available today and mistakenly, we think all our adult children did because it has been given for decades now. Not necessarily true! Or, they didn't keep up with booster shots. http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd-vac/tetanus/default.htm Several types of vaccine: DTaP, Tdap, DT, TT, and Td (TT only covers tetanus; does NOT cover whooping cough.) Diphtheria - severe respiratory or skin infection; resp has 5-10% mortality rate & does heart damage Tetanus - lock jaw, 10% mortality rate (of the 4 I've seen, 3 died, lone survivor was a strapping 18 yo farm boy in great physical condition) Pertussis - Whooping cough Upper-case letters in these abbreviations denote full-strength doses of diphtheria (D) and tetanus (T) toxoids and pertussis (P) vaccine. Lower-case “d” and “p” denote reduced doses of diphtheria and pertussis used in the adolescent/adult-formulations. The “a” in DTaP and Tdap stands for “acellular,” meaning that the pertussis component contains only a part of the pertussis organism.] CDC is recommending 18-64 yo get one time dose of Tdap, but questionable if over 65 yo should get it (should probably get Td). Children get a series of TDaP and TD shots. * * * ME ON SOAP BOX * * * EVERYONE needs a some kind of tetanus shot every 10 years. Folks that deal with dirty sharp metal things and accident prone (use lots of band-aids) - need more often. JUST SAYING: (Tdap, DT, or Td) get a shot of one of these at you next trip to the doctor. If you can't remember when you had your last shot; you are over due. Funny things is NOT ALL doctors keep them in their office because they expire- call ahead or be thrifty and go to Health Department. Getting off soap box - Marsha (get well Peggy and folks) --- On Mon, 9/20/10, PEGGY TRUESDELL <truesdellp@att.net> wrote . . . . My daughter (b. 1962) had whooping cough, and I took a Z-pack. My only symptoms was the medicine made me sleep a lot. My daughter was miserable coughing night and day, so when she went to doctor, they confirmed by a blood test. Some of my friends in Oklahoma say they have been reading about w.c. in newspapers.

Beth, it came through just fine. Thought I should tell you that Fern {WOOD(S}FARMER had no children. Don't know about other couple. One of my older first cousins (female) who lived in California was part of "mate swap." Both men were medical doctors and there were several children. They were involved socially. One couple took all of the female children and the other couple took all of the male children. Peggy Not sure about life span(s) of your relatives that knew the LUTHER girls in two-story house on right side going toward Norfork - but they may have been personally acquainted with Fern {WOOD(S} FARMER. She lived a bit further from LUTHER home in white house on left side of road before Norfork. Fern was mail carrier for more than 40 years, and Matney Township "across White River" was part of route.

My first higher education was in journalism, which I absolutely loved. I really wanted to be a court reporter but in those years the nearest schooling was in Kansas City. Circumstances in my family prohibited them supporting me to go to college. We had suffered great income loss when I was about 13 and my father was seriously injured in a tractor accident. He had cataract surgery on both eyes during the 40s and lost his peripheral vision (sight only replaced then by thick glasses) and when he turned the tractor at end of row, he misjudged and went tumbling down creek bank. This was in March before spring rains and water low. He was about half mile from house but my mother and neighbor were outside and heard him. She thought something was in chicken house and investigated. They heard him again and she went further to where she would be able to see him on tractor. Not seeing him, she asked neighbor to go back and call for help. She did and soon after my mother found him, an ambulance arrived and removed him (accompanied by my mother) to hospital in Broken Arrow, where he stayed for some time. I was on school bus and we met ambulance about half mile away. An uncommon sight, but quite a shock when our neighbor told me when I got off bus. His developed pneumonia. Anyway, I couldn't speak for about two weeks. I was last one left at home -- only one to milk cows and do chores. One of Daddy's brothers who lived and worked in Tulsa came often and helped me with planting, etc. Husband of one of my FINLEY cousins -- who went to his reward as a young man -- helped some. Until this time we had grain, hay fields, and "Market" garden and farmed 160 acres. We sold 80 acres at a "sacrifice" and it took some years for his convalescence. Fortunately, I won scholarship to "Oklahoma Women's College" at Chickasha where I studied journalism. But worked mostly in law -- one of my first jobs was in legal department at Seismograph Service. Then, I married attorney and worked in probate at county courthouse, which opened some doors along the way, so did legal and oil and gas work. That's a good part of my life history, Looking back, it was an interesting life. One of the best experiences I had was working for Charles A. KOTHE, who in his 80s when he testified in the Clarence THOMAS hearings. He was the finest gentleman and surely most brilliant I ever knew. He was labor law attorney for management and practiced in every U.S. labor court as well as its protectorates. He traveled a good deal of the time and we sometimes worked through the night and weekends. When he left the firm and I went to work for an oil and gas man, but still worked for him at his home. It was during this time he (w/ financial help of O. W. COBURN, father of U.S. senator who is doctor) that he began law school at Oral Roberts University. ORU later lost accreditation for law school. He had a wonderful personality. Sometimes at two or three in the morning, I would take my shorthand notes and say, "Mr. Kothe, I don't think we have a complete sentence here. He reacted with delight that I called it to his attention. I would read my notes and get it right. Sometimes he worked in his "bunny" (footed) pajamas. Sometimes his wife was out-of-town. Sometimes on weekends we went there to work. Yes, I saw Oral and his mother. The ROBERTS lived two or three miles south of us, towards Bixby, and Mrs. Evelyn ROBERTS came to our house to buy vegetables. Their livestock lived better than most people. Their farm later became Juniper Hills Nursery. My brother, first veterinarian in Oklahoma to enter strictly equine practice, lived in Okmulgee until about 1960. Oral's large herd was one he took care of, until he was traveling so much to Tulsa he relocated. People complained of Oral's vast holdings and it forced him to reduce them. The Kothes were Presbyterian and one son was Presbyterian minister in Las Vegas -- typed his sermons from cassettes. Mr. Kothe and my first husband (TRUESDELL) attended McCormick Seminary in Chicago, but at different times. (I somehow managed to marry two Presbyterians, was always lukewarm member of CofC.) It was during those years that Mr. Kothe appeared as actor in a black and white movie, which he sometimes viewed during his travels. It was his wife Janet who first urged me to quit my job and work for him at ORU, pointing out my children could attend there tuition-free. Mrs, Kothe said he was "comfortable" working with me. If I had taken their offer, I too would have known Anita HILL and Clarence THOMAS. Mr. Kothe maintained notebooks of "Orchid Letters" received from churches, companies, etc. where he spoke as a motivational speaker. In his later years, I would call from time to time, and ask if he remembered me, and he would say, "I'm one of your greatest fans." Always gave me a "warm fuzzy." He had such a great mind and so knowledgeable in labor law, I'd think his mind should somehow be saved for posterity. His vocabulary was massive and he would often send me to his his huge dictionary kept on a stand. When he died, I still lived in Tulsa and attended his funeral. He is truly one of the most "unforgettable" characters I was privileged to know.

California seems to be hit hardest, but not an epidemic. Older adults don't know they have it and before they go to the doctor have shared it to other adults who have missed some vaccinations too. We didn't get all the vaccines in our early childhood shots that are available today and mistakenly, we think all our adult children did because it has been given for decades now. Not necessarily true! Or, they didn't keep up with booster shots. http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd-vac/tetanus/default.htm Several types of vaccine: DTaP, Tdap, DT, TT, and Td (TT only covers tetanus; does NOT cover whooping cough.) Diphtheria - severe respiratory or skin infection; resp has 5-10% mortality rate & does heart damage Tetanus - lock jaw, 10% mortality rate (of the 4 I've seen, 3 died, lone survivor was a strapping 18 yo farm boy in great physical condition) Pertussis - Whooping cough Upper-case letters in these abbreviations denote full-strength doses of diphtheria (D) and tetanus (T) toxoids and pertussis (P) vaccine. Lower-case “d” and “p” denote reduced doses of diphtheria and pertussis used in the adolescent/adult-formulations. The “a” in DTaP and Tdap stands for “acellular,” meaning that the pertussis component contains only a part of the pertussis organism.] CDC is recommending 18-64 yo get one time dose of Tdap, but questionable if over 65 yo should get it (should probably get Td). Children get a series of TDaP and TD shots. * * * ME ON SOAP BOX * * * EVERYONE needs a some kind of tetanus shot every 10 years. Folks that deal with dirty sharp metal things and accident prone (use lots of band-aids) - need more often. JUST SAYING: (Tdap, DT, or Td) get a shot of one of these at you next trip to the doctor. If you can't remember when you had your last shot; you are over due. Funny things is NOT ALL doctors keep them in their office because they expire- call ahead or be thrifty and go to Health Department. Getting off soap box - Marsha (get well Peggy and folks) --- On Mon, 9/20/10, PEGGY TRUESDELL <truesdellp@att.net> wrote . . . . My daughter (b. 1962) had whooping cough, and I took a Z-pack. My only symptoms was the medicine made me sleep a lot. My daughter was miserable coughing night and day, so when she went to doctor, they confirmed by a blood test. Some of my friends in Oklahoma say they have been reading about w.c. in newspapers. Alexis (11 on Oct 1) had no symptoms but pediatrician prescribed medicine and recommended she stay home several days. . . . ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ARIZARD-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
I'm trying this again, I just had it bounce before I got off the computer! ----- Forwarded Message ---- From: Beth Cooper <bpc4u@sbcglobal.net> To: arizard@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, September 21, 2010 9:00:13 AM Subject: Re: [ARIZARD] WATSON--Peggy Peggy, I do believe I have heard the same story about Burleson and it did come from Mother's Johnson side of the family so there is the possibility that the information had come through Watson connections to our Phillips/Casterline/Castline branch from way, way back in Iowa. chuckles are in order, about your comments about Prairie Grove, my husband's Broughton family may have been either siding with or at the other end of the battle field with Grandma Broughton out there with cannon balls being carried in her upturned apron skirt! I may have wrong generation but I believe she was a Neal descendant probably from IL. Gotta go! hit the road! Cheers, Beth ----- Original Message ---- From: PEGGY TRUESDELL <truesdellp@att.net> To: arizard@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, September 21, 2010 8:21:49 AM Subject: Re: [ARIZARD] WATSON (Beth) Beth, my folks probably knew his parents, as my Grandfather Robert Polk KING and couple other men started Church of Christ in Broken Arrow soon after locating there in 1921, sixteen years before my birth. It seems my mother knew they were from Arkansas. She told me interesting tidbit -- one connected to BURLESON of Izard or Baxter area. She told me this because Fern WOOD(S) - daughter of relative Lois {KING} WOOD(S) - dau of Charles Oliver KING, nephew of my grandfather Robert Polk KING - had married BURLESON. There was "mates' switch." Fern and BURLESON husband traded mates with other couple, with whom they had associated. I remember some connection to WATSONs. Grandmother of my youngest son Barry Edmond KEITH (one who has lived in Japan since 1981 and is professor at university there) was Grace WATSON. She was City Librarian at Fayetteville, Arkansas and the genealogy wing built in 1970s was named for her. I know that one of her ancestors was one of the kidnapped (but rescued) girls in story, "Last of the Mohicans." Seems there is painting depicting that. I'll look at my son's records and let you know where they lived. Her WATSONs lived at Prairie Grove before the Civil War, and she had furniture from their home. One piece was a a chest and at the time Union invaded their home the top drawer was locked. They broke the lock, removed drawer which family replaced. Her father was county official of Washington County. She graduated from University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. About the "mate switch" -- seems I got to bottom of that few years ago -- all stored on my double set of backup floppies. The only progress made is that I have purchased external drive and 2010 edition of Family Tree -- but don't know how to get from "A to Z" yet. I know other List members have accomplished this. Seems I had 70K plus individuals. I had most records that Bernie had as we were "working in tandem." I remember having two or three serious errors, but made list and can correct those. My own family records are quite accurate. I keep hoping some good fairy comes along to help! Have a great day! I know you're one busy lady.
