Thanks for the information-Yes it is the same. Irene falls in my line by her grandmother-Susan Joesphine Clark.two questions for you-I pulled the obit for Her husband -same as yours-William Orvel Tillery out of the NWAT -Fayetteville-unless I goofed somewhere and that it highly possibly-it listed his parents as Willie Tillery and Julia Norril. All the dates on William Orvel I have and you have agree. Should I go back and recheck the obit? Some information someone had given me-not documented listed two sons- William and Michael. So far, Michael is right-but I can't find a son, William so my thought was he had died as a child. My second question was on some of Irene's other Carrigan's. I believe it was her uncle-James A. Carrigan had 3 kids-Haggie, Glen and Samuel. Haggie married a Quapaw Indian out of Miam, Ok. Do these Carrigan's fall in your line. Thanks for any ideas.
