    1. [MOJEFFER] Diana Hornsby Pyeatt dod June 6, 1928

    3. Hello all, I discovered some good news and bad news yesterday about my Diana Hornsby who married William Dudley Pyeatt in Burnett Co, TX, 1853 and who spent most of her life in Jefferson Co, MO, where William died in 1912. I found that she lived in Tulsa, OK, and is buried in the Oaklawn Cemetery - her date of death was June 6, 1928. Now for the bad news. Tulsa did not have obituaries in the paper until 1940s or 1950s. Before that time you had to be murdered or a notable citizen to get written up in the paper and even then the obit may not have most normal genealogical info. Also, they have an index to all people who have files in the City of Tulsa funeral homes and her name did not appear. So, I was hoping that someone might have placed an obit in the Jefferson County, MO, paper as some of her children might still have been in that area. Does anyone have access to the newspaper (by the way, what newspaper served that area) who could look up Diana Pyeatt 6-6-1928 and William Dudley Pyeatt ?-?-1912? Thank you, Marianne
