Posted on: Carter County, Ok Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ok/Carter?read=1165 Surname: ------------------------- My g-g-uncle reportedly died in a fire at his work in Ardmore in the 1940's. The 1941 Ardmore City Directory says that George J. Porterfield worked at the Lumbermen's Millwork and Supply. In 1946, only his wife, Gladys is listed in the directory, so he evidently died between 1941 and 1946. Gladys worked at Daube's store until 1972 when she retired. She died in 1975. George and Gladys had one adopted son, Jerry Porterfield, who was living in Oklahoma City in 1975. I would appreciate any information about the fire, George's death, or other information about the Porterfield family.
