My gg-grandfather, John William Motley, was in Washita County, near Greer County in 1900. There were some other Motleys out there mentioned in John's Union pension application. I'll have to dig that up and let you know. He moved the family to Searcy County, Arkansas in 1905 or so, and wasn't in Oklahoma for very long. - Heather On Wed, 17 Jul 2002, Norma Bremer wrote: > Hello, I need to reply to this as I have a Motley (Georgia Root Motley ) > That signed my grandmothers wedding register in 1894 in Willowvale Greer > County OK, Because of the nature of the signature, I am replying as my > grandmothers husband was a Johnson B: in MO Jasper County in 1870.
