I would rater have cemeteries canvassed. Keep up the good work.

Kathleen, Which do you need most--cemeteries canvassed or entry of those already canvassed? I could probably provide data entry help, if it can be done in my home. But, that will mean that I stop doing the canvassing. Let me know.

They are indeed buried in the Enid Cemetery. If you need dates, children names etc. let me know. Hattie Belle Sterling is listed with the name ( Dillon) also.. Maiden name? They should have obits in the old papers for most of them, except maybe Roch, 1909 you never know.. Rochchester has the symbles GAR listed beside his name. Grand Army of the Republic. Hattie and Thomas Reed Sr , & his wife Cecil are buried in the same lots, but Roch is buried in the origional section.

Thank you a million for looking this up for us. This is why Walter and Caroline are lost to us. Old James Franklin had three children, Fred, Walter and Caroline. Whoever wrote the obit didn't know about them either. We have no idea when Walter died (we think he must be dead, born 1896) and he may have been alive then. Fred, my husband's dad, didn't die until Sept of 61, and Caroline died Aug 78, and we cannot find her body. This is extremely frustrating and sad for us, and if anyone has any ideas, we want to hear them.

I was just at the Griffin Memorial last week. They do have a listing of burials in the medical records office. I am not sure when they stopped burials at Rock Creek (or if they even have stopped). They did not begin until the 1930's. The grave I was looking for was at Norman IOOF, only a couple of blocks away at Porter & Rock Creek. Norman is not far from Grady county, not real sure where Bailey is, but there probably isn't anywhere in the county more than an hours drive from downtown Norman. joe harrington -----Original Message----- From: Ruby Nell Nicholson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, February 25, 2001 4:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OK-CEM] Central State Hospital Gene, I have a death certificate for my great grandfather's son Benjamin (Ben) Wood, born in 1884, died in 1953 and it says that Ben died in Norman OK at Central State Hospital.

Dear List Members: Tammie Chada, the Web Mistress of the OK-Cemeteries Inventory and Volunteer website is in need of helpers. If you would be interested, you need to have the ability to work with .txt files and a database program like Excell, Access or Works. We can't tell you the exact amount of time that will be needed. We go days and don't need help but then for a week we are in desperate need. Once all of the cemetery inventories are caught up that are waiting to be entered, the time you would need to spend on the project would be easier to determine. These sites are becoming so successful that we are now constantly receiving new data that needs to be entered and then can be uploaded to the site. This does not even address the thousands of photos that are waiting for Tammie to upload. If you would be interested in becoming a part of this project we would love to hear from you. Your time helping us with this project will allow us to continue all four state Cemetery Inventory and Volunteer Sites, Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. Kathleen Burnett List Mom [email protected] Tammie Chada Web Mistress [email protected]
