PeggyYellowRose, Regarding Indian and early pioneer cemeteries in Oklahoma, the Poteau Valley Genealogical Society, P.O. Box 1031, Poteau, OK 74953, several years ago published a series of these early cemeteries in eastern Oklahoma. You might write them for information on the volumes. Volume 13 covers some of the LeFlore Co. cemeteries, including Skullyville begun in about 1830; however, there seem to be few of the early graves marked. Also, the Bryan Co. Heritage Assn. Inc., has published several volumes of Bryan Co. , OK, cemeteries. I have Vol. IV, which covers the Pioneer Cemetery and Highland Cemetery in Durant, OK. They also have published two volumes with the Choctaw Emigration Records 1831-1856. Hope this helps! pattyg74056@cs.com
Halito Lorie What is good about learning our language is. When you pray to Grandfather our Ancestors also hear our prayers. Some of them don't understand english, but when you say prayers in our language they understand and can help also. Walk in Beauty Elkdreamer
Halito Elkdreamer. Thank you so again for your guidance. As I learn the language, I'll try to use it properly. Lori

The deal is that her grave is unmarked. I know that she is there as I have her death certificate. I am currently looking for her connections to the Choctaw. Her sister Mary married a Richard Wright. Her brother "Bud" married a Lottie Brown but that is about all the info I have. Supposed to have sisters named Pamela and Victoria also but I have had no luck finding any other information.

Thanks, Ron: I just spent time on the choctawcrafts.com website. It is fantastic. I found so many things that I want. Thanks for the recommendations. Lori
The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma has materials on their website. Also, the University of Oklahoma Press has published a language grammar called, I believe, Chata Anumpa, available from Amazon.com.

Thanks, Elkdreamer. I was unaware of the on-line classes. That sounds interesting as well as the tapes. The tapes may be more beneficial because they probably provide the sound of the pronounciation. Thanks, again. Lori
Halito and good Morning Lori You can get books and language tapes from the Choctaw Nation book store. They also have on-line language classes. Go to (Choctaw Nation. com) and click on language classes. all of the information is there. Walk in Beauty Elkdreamer
I have been on vacation and just came home this evening to 232 messages. Sorry for the delay. Do you have any other information besides John Allen. Perhaps years. I am of Farve/Favre decent, but my maiden name was Allen. Oddly enough, so was my mother's. Let me know. Jeanie Allen Davis

I do encounter many names that people ask about but I also come up dry with Goss a lot too. Nevertheless, I think it is an invaluable tool to use, especially if we are related to many Choctaw who are potentially on the rolls. John Craven New Orleans
Do you have any information on the Homma family that lived in Atoka Co. and is on the Choctaw rolls. Thank you, Maxine in Enid
