Hi all -- The OKBios Board is ready for posting. It is set up as a read only board to keep others not entering from the book from posting. Contact me individually for the necessary information to input the information. OKBios Board http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ok/OkBios Which, if either of these formats did we decide on? http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ok/Unknown this one seems more appropriate for the subject line GIVEN SURNAME as used in the book Is there an index in book 1 or 5? anyone know? We should mention when a photo is found in the book. As stated previously - Nancy of GenConnect said she would put a blurb at the top of the page with book information. Is the following from Vol. 3 sufficient? Does any of the other volume has something different? Joseph B. Thoburn, "A Standard History of Oklahoma," 5 volumes (Chicago:The American Historical Society, 1916) An Authentic Narrative of its Development from the Date of the First European Exploration down to the Present Time, including Accounts of the Indian Tribes, both Civilized and Wild, of the Cattle Range, of the Land Openings and the Achievements of the most Recent Period Ronda, Linnie, and Harriette each have a copy of one volume and Gordon has copies of all 5 volumes. I have copy of Vol. 3 which is the same as Linnie's. Marti

It took a little while to figure out what 200 OK meant. I figured it must be okay, though. It flagged redirects, the / missing from an end of a URL, and the SSDI ancestry link for some reason. It calls the cgi script for the Rootsweb counter, webtools, a dead link, but that's okay, it still counts. dmorgan@efn.org * David W.

Rootsweb Link Validator http://tn-1.rootsweb.com/~randy/cgi-bin/vallink.cgi Use the above link to validate the links on your pages. Works great. Thanks to Rootsweb and Randy. Our page evaluator, Kenny, evaluates our OKGenWeb county pages every month or so for broken links, with the above you can now check any of your pages yourself before Kenny's visit.

Hi, Marti. I was afraid you'd ask me that <g>. If everyone would send me the URL for military databases and lookups on their pages, I'd be happy to put it together. Just tell me where to upload it.

Harriette - let me know when you do find out about the copyright - I'm working w/ someone now that has visited many cemeteries in Oklahoma and abstracted burial information on the Confederate Civil War men. A combination of this information would be a great addition to Oklahoma. Also, don't forget we have Ann and Ethyl working on 'Civil War in Indian Territory.' That's a great idea for another page - would you like to create and maintain?

Hi, All. I have a list of vets buried in Logan County (up to 1965) that I can only do lookups from because I have not researched the copyright as yet.

Hi Jane and all, Great page! I have *some* World War I soldiers from Haskell Co and a couple of lists of statewide missing and wounded in action. It, too, is a work in process. It's from microfilm newspapers. O.K. if I provide a link to your site?

Hello All, The time as began again for me to start working on "The Oklahoma Spirit of '17" WW I. <http://www.rootsweb.com/~okcraig/soldiers.htm> I had a problem with my hard drive and did not save, so it is from scratch again. I have completed A, B (1&2), C(1), V, Y, Z. Almost finished with C(2). Just thought I would let you know.
