"Hello again Fellow Family Researchers!" Might any of you have WANTLAND family roots in Webster Co., MO? If so, am hoping that the below family might be familiar to you, and will be more than happy to share what I know of your family's ancestry with you. Am hoping to learn who each of these children might have married, and am looking forward to locating as many of their families in the 1900, 1910, and 1920 censuses as I might be able to do.

I did not find a Missouri-specific list, but there are two sites worth a look. One has a list of surnames settling the Cherokee strip, 1893 (link to the listing at the bottom of the page): http://www.harvestcomm.net/personal/bjsbytes/chkstrip.htm The second has a county-by-county listing of lands affected by the first land rush, 1889: http://marti.rootsweb.com/land/oklands.html -- John R. Porter j.porter@usip.edu

Just uploaded a new page on the history Fort Belle Fontaine. New photos of the site including panoramic views and even a photo of the "Beautiful Fountain" spring itself. Right now I am in search of rosters of soldiers stationed there. I know they must be a national archives micro film roll out there some place. However I did manage to find a roster of a officers of a militia "rangers" company that heralded from the area of the fort. Should have those up sometime this week. **I would be interested in including information about anyone's ancestors stationed at this fort. Photos were taken with my new Canon PowershotDigital Elph. Love it and the pictures cost me nothing to take! http://www.usgennet.org/usa/mo/county/stlouis/bellefontaine/fort.htm Thanks to Mike Kladky, Museum Exhibit Technician at St. Louis County Parks and Recreation for helping me out on this!

It has the families name and who they married and what there lives were like and what they did for a living It is real an interesting book it was written in 1922 but has the History going back to the late 1800

Hi Pat, I'm interested in where this book can be obtained, or pertinent info about the book, it author(s) and the publisher. Much of my family history research involves that area of Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Cherokee Indian, etc. Sam Maddux -----Original Message----- From: Pat Short [mailto:pashort@neok.com] Sent: Sunday, April 07, 2002 1:53 AM To: Missouri-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [MO] History of Muskogee and Northeastern Oklahoma Book Vo III I have the History of Muskogee and Northeastern Oklahoma Book Vol. III.
