"Growing Up With Tulsa" by Blanche Opal Kern Schad is now finished and online. Several photos will be added here in the next several days. Please check back often for updates to this book. Essentially all of the text is now online. Please keep in mind that I do not have any information on anyone in this book except for the ancestral Harrison lines which I will gladly share with interested parties. I hope that you will enjoy Opal's book. ~ Kathie Harrison June 20, 2003 This book has been reprinted by permission of Harry Schad, son of the author Blanche Opal Kern Schad. This book was written and self published by Blanche Opal Kern Schad of Tulsa, OK. She was a Harrison descendant and first cousin to my G-grandfather, Herman Harrison who lived in Saunders Co., Nebraska. Opal's mother Emma Justine Harrison and my GG-grandfather Richard Harrison (Cuming Co., NE) were siblings. Emma and her husband Charles Wesley Kern went from Saunders Co., NE to OK Territory in 1893 and settled in Tulsa. This is a story of the family and Opal and her older siblings and later their own families growing up with Tulsa from territorial days to statehood and through 2 World Wars, etc. Opal's son Harry of Tulsa, OK gave me permission to transcribe and put his mother's book online. It is not available, except at the Tulsa library and by Opal's immediate family. Reproduced by Kathie Harrison (Harry's second cousin twice removed). http://freepages.books.rootsweb.com/~irishrose/tulsa/index.html Always digging for my roots, Kathie Harrison Lancaster Co.
