I don't know anything about the CCC in Marietta, but if you had anyone who migrated to Oklahoma and worked in the WPA, there is a new book out called WPA by Marjorie Barton. It is a beautiful and interesting book published by the Oklahoma Heritage Association. She did tons of research on this book. My Lang's from Newport and Prestons from the Marietta area moved to Oklahoma during the early 1900's - but as far as I know none of them worked in the WPA or CCC.
