MR KEITH LOWREY <snip> "I am still wondering if anyone know where Frozen Rock might have been in I. T. in 1859. Thanks" Keith, there are several references in The Chronicles of Oklahoma to Frozen Rock. It was on the Arkansas River, located within the Cherokee Nation and was between Fort Gibson and Forth Smith AR. It was also called "Frozen Rock Landing" because it was a regular stop for boat traffic on the Arkansas river. In 1838 William Shorey Coodey and his second wife, Elizabeth Fields, established their home on a high bank of the Arkansas, overlooking Frozen Rock Landing. From their porch they could watch the steamboat traffic on the river. jc jc
