Our ancestor lived in a house on West Clayton St. in 1920. Might that house still be there or has that area had development changes? What are the chances the house # would be the same if still there? Thanks,

Aunt Maude's Mom (my Grandmother) was Lilly Geneva"Neva" Sheets. After James Wesley died, Neva married Ted Miller. Helen and Kenneth Miller were born, but Neva died in 1933 when my Dad was around 5 yrs old. Maude married Mr. Shaw-father of her 3 sons . When Maude died her name was Ketchum. She and her 3 sons, Bill, Neut, and Shorty, all died within a few years of each other. Would like to correspond with members of Maude's family. Aunt Maude listed as American Indian of her death Certificate. I think James Wesley was Choctaw Indian. Don't know if Grandma Neva was Indian.

Lynn and Delton.Thay were all born in Oklahoma around a Ada.

I am sending out several feelers here and a question. I recently sent off to Oklahoma for a copy of my ex-husband's mother's birth certificate. The birth took place in Soper in Sept 1918. They said they could find no record of the event. I know many didn't bother to record births back then especially when they had the child at home. Martha Frances Warren and Husband A.R. Gladden definitely had a daughter named Aaron Aline Gladden at this time and place. There is a situation though. Supposingly Martha is part Choctaw or Cherokee. If she is, would there be another place where births, deaths, marriages might be recorded. Martha herself was born in Soper, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory 2 Feb 1901. Her parents were Winnie Halford (born 1876 in Missouri) and Lee Warren. Martha's grandchildren seem to know less than I do. According to the 1920 census for Choctaw, OK both of Winnie's parents were born in Illinois. Winnie Halford was married to a man named Howard McQueen by 1917, so Lee Warren was either deceased or they divorced. Howard McQueen was born 1882 in Texas according to the 1920 census. I know I have posted some of this information before but whenever I get a new bit of info I repost the whole thing. I have tracked my own family back into the 1600s and 1700s but I can't seem to move on this one.
