I have a couple of questions, maybe someone can answer. 1. In 1900 census, Choctaw Nation, I found my ggreat grandfather today. He was listed as white and owned his farm. In 1900 (I know this was during the Dawes) Could a white man own his farm there? This was in District 5, SD73, ED 79, any ideas where district (division??) 5 was located? 2. In 1900 census, Choctaw Nation, I found my ggrandfather and several members of the family. They were in Division 6, SD 73, ED 79. Any ideas as to where this would have been? There were no townships or ranges that I found and checked several pages before and after the above locations. Any ideas how I can pin down these locations so I can check in relation to todays locations? Thanks for any help, guidance. Ethel Taylor

Hi Everyone, I am very interested in finding information on William Ferguson born 1851 Taney County, Mo.Married 1866 to Etta Jane Ray near Springfield, Mo. Greene County. Etta was born 6-29-1851 died 1-5-1920 at Greenburg, Mo. One son that I know of Paul Euwing Ferguson born 7-5-1879 died 1-25-1971 Married Maude Hale. William was a professional gambler and was often gone on gambling trips on one of his trips between 1879 and 1889 he was killed by a Indian the family thinks. Would love to hear from anyone on these people I have search everywhere I know to search. Thank you Walsie

Hi Everybody, Does anyone know of my grandfather WOODALL O'KUYKENDALL "Woda" BERRY son Samuel A. Berry and Sarah Almedia Allen Berry. According to his birth affidavit of the Dept. of the Interior, Commission to the Five Civilized Tribes, he was born 30 JAN 1897 in Northern District (hard to read) of Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory. His mother, a Cherokee citizen was known as Almedia, or "Meda" or "Midia" was the daughter of William Alexander Allen and Emma Inez Boudinot. According to my mother's birth certificate Woda was born in Muskogee, OK. I also find references to the Canadian District and also to Porum, OK. Katie Starr and Carrie Starr attended the birth of Woda Berry on the 30th of January 1897. Katie and Carrie Starr were also at the birth of Woda's brother, HOMER BERRY b. 17 MAR 1899, Muskogee, OK, d. 01 JUN 1944 Knox City, Knox, TX. Woda also had a sister, Emma, b.1896, m. ca 1910 to George Redwine,d. 1926 and buried with infant in Castro Memorial Gardens Cemetery in Dimmitt, Castro, TX. There may have been a sister named Lola b. 1899, d. 1903 and buried in Starr Family Cemetery SW of Briartown, Oklahoma. Looking on my atlas I'm unable to tell if Briartown is in Haskell or Muskogee County. There was another sister,Minnie Berry, who was adopted by Carrie and Pony Starr. Eliza Catherine "Carrie" Horn, born August 12, 1879, in Indian Territory, Oklahoma; died October 14, 1962, in Sequoyah County, Oklahoma. I don't know the parents of Carrie. She married (1) Samuel Saguila " Pony " Starr 1899. He was the son of Thomas Starr and Clarissa Autry. *Note: Thomas Starr was the son of Catherine Reese, b. 08 AUG 1820, d. 04 JUL 1884 and Thomas Starr b. 1813, d. 07 OCT 1890. Catherine was the sister of Eleanor "Ellen" Reese great aunt to Thomas and great grandmother to Emma, Woda, Homer, Nina and perhaps Lola. Carrie and Pony adopted Minnie Berry 4000-Minnie Berry, Citizenship Certificate Issued October 26, 1907. My grandfather (who at age 6) said he remembered the day that Carrie Starr rode up on her horse and took his baby sister away. My great grandmother, Sarah Almedia Allen Berry, had died as a result of childbirth. Minnie married J. Lawrence Hodgkins. Mr. Hodgkins according to his business stationery was involved in real estate, stockyards, meat market and grocery, Texas' largest food display, and Walnut Creek Farms with registered Jersey cattle. I knew Minnie as "Aunt Lois" my grandfather's sister. She lived in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and died there in August of 1989. In 1941 she was living in Lake Worth, Ft. Worth, TX. She never had children. She enjoyed oil painting. My parents have one of her landscapes. An affidavit from the State of Oklahoma, County of Muskogee states: Nina Hodgkins of lawful age being first duly sworn upon oath states: that she was born Minnie Berry; that her mother died when she was about six weeks old and her father gave her to E. Cassie Starr and Samuel Starr; that E. Cassie Starr and Samuel Starr changed her name to Nina Berry Starr; that subsequently when she became of age she married J. L. Hodgkins; that she has been known through her life as Minnie Berry Hodgkins and Nina Hodgkins; and that the Nina Hodgkins mentioned in the will and final decree entered in the estate of Cassie E. Starr, deceased, is one and the same person as Minnie Berry Hodgkins. Witnessed 23 MAY 1963 by Lucy Mannis foster sister of Nina. When my grandfather lived with my family, he would sometimes go to Oklahoma to visit his "Indian cousins". An entry in his address book leads me to believe this person might have been Emmett Lowery and his 2nd wife Fern McCaslin Lowery. Emmett had nine children by his first wife Nannie B. Hornett. You might say, she already knows everything about these people. Maybe so, but there's always room for more. I'd especially like to find some of Emmett's children some of whom would still be living and in their 70's. Would love to hear from you. Helen Davis GradashY@aol.com

B.J Try the 1900/1910 U.S. census records ("Soundex") of that state to find out where he was incarcerated. Many of the jails - large and small, are listed. Then write to the facility and see if they will send you information. jc

Hello, Does anyone know of a webpage listing Judge Parkers descendants? Thanks, Gregg res: Waldo, Redus, Emfinger, Ingram, Barnes, Flowers, Livingston, Mahan, Morgan, Parsons, Pullum, Parker, Thornhill, Tucker, Holder, Winters, Green, Taylor, Smiley

gang, would anyone by any chance know if there is a way to check for a prison record on someone about the turn of the century. My g-grandmother was married three times and her last husband (they were only married for six months) was convicted of murder and sentenced to 20 years in the pen. Need to verify where they were living at that time. B.J. (Massey) Clay
