Rev. Joe, The best I could find was a listing for: Fannie L Short Smith 1903 - 1970 Name close dates way off. (Granddaughter?) from page 57 "Cemeteries in Beckham County, Ok." Carter Cemetery 1 mi N and 1 mi W of Carter, Oklahoma Given the location of Texola I would suggest you check out Shamrock, Wheeler Co., Texas. My wife had a aunt from Sayre buried in Shamrock.

Thanks for the try. I don't recognize Fannie, but several of the generations born 1850-80 moved from West Texas to Sayre, Mangum, Erick, Rocky so it is likely that she would be a cousin. I'll have to check... BTW, I ended up in West Oklahoma unexpectedly this week so had the chance to actually go to Texola and Erick... Found France's son & d/l in Erick, but no luck on her. There are an extremely large number of graves at Texola marked with white iron crosses, no inscriptions. joe. -----Original Message----- From: Frederick Dittmar [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, February 23, 2001 7:46 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [OK-CEM] F.
