    1. [OKChoctaw] Re: Looking for my Aunt Maude Kechums family
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zZB.2ACI/485.1.1.2 Message Board Post: Sandy, just for future reference: I called my uncle who was only 1 when Newton Routon and he told me that shortly after Newton died in 1923, Nick moved to Atlas OK, a small community between Hugo (Choctaw Co) and Antlers OK (just a few miles north of Hugo). There she married another man. Apparently she had a daughter because when he was a young adult, a woman about his age (he was b. 1922) came up to him and told him that Nick was her mother. Probably the woman was not the daughter of Newton, unless she was pregnant when he died. Nick would have been born probably between 1900 and 1905. When I asked uncle if Nick was Indian, he said, oh yeah, she was. My uncle did not know of any other Ketchums living directly in the Soper area nor where Nick had come from. All this is for future reference in case you should come across anything. No reply to this is necessary on your part.
