Halito, When I receive the microfilm I will look for whom my Sarah E. Wilson descends from. rnhblm <rnhblm@yahoo.com> wrote: Halito, Surnames of Pugh, Pannell, Wilson, Cowan, Willis, Woods. I have information on most of these people except for Abner and Jimmy Wilson. I do not have information concerning the James & Elizabeth Pannell family. They were white and came here from Clark County Arkansas about 1890 with the Henry Tillman Pugh family and settled in the present Muse OK area. HT Pugh's son, Alvin Pearl Pugh married Ada Wilson. What I am looking for concerning the Wilsons would be prior to the Dawes Rolls. If anyone has access to the illegal white census, I would appreciate a look-up for Robert Willis and Abner Wilson. The only given names for Wilson are Abner, Rosanna and Jimmy (James) and of course, Ada Wilson Pugh and Mary Jane Wilson Most of the family is buried in the Muse and Whitesboro Cemetery but I have not found even a grave for Abner. Thank you, Richard Wilson wrote: Halito, I have one Wilson who attempted enrollment in the Choctaw Tribe during the Dawes' Commission: Sarah E. Wilson MCR# 6578, application# 641. What are some of your other surnames? Perhaps there is a correspondence on some of your other names. Imafo rnhblm wrote: My g-grandfather was Abner Wilson. I assume he was white but married a Choctaw by the name of Rosanna Willis. I've seen several variations in the spelling of Rosanna. Her parents were Robert and Sarah (Woods) Willis. Abner and Rosanna had 2 children, Ada Wilson and Mary Jane Wilson, both born in the late 1880's. These people lived in Wade County, Choctaw Nation, I.T. in what is now the Muse OK area. Abner died about 1889 and I was told he was about 30 years old at the time of his death. In years past I found some type of document that placed Abner Wilson and Robert Willis together and I think it was as illegal whites. I have misplaced that information. I also found something at one point in time that indicated Abner was born in Arkansas; it may have been the same document. My grandmother wrote in my baby book that Abner's parent's names were Jimmy Wilson and (?) Cowan. I have searched census records for Jimmy, James, JA, AJ, Abner, etc. but can not find any that I can directly link to Abner. I can find no record of these people or of Abner before his death other than what I've written here. I would appreciate any information anyone can offer on my missing Wilson family. --------------------------------- All-new Yahoo!
