sbd / KSSOONERS@aol.com, I've included an e-mail I sent to the Lawton Public Library regarding your request. http://www.cityof.lawton.ok.us/library/oklahoma.htm <A HREF="http://www.cityof.lawton.ok.us/library/oklahoma.htm">Oklahoma Genealogy </A> Also, I've included the information from their webpage, which says they have the back copies of Prairie Lore you are seeking. When they respond to my post, I will forward it on to you. I am in Los Angeles, so I'll be willing to bet you are closer to Lawton than I am...knowing that they have the back copies you are looking for, you might choose to make a trip to see them. If not, I will be there in June to visit relatives, and will be happy to do a lookup for you at that time. I am mystified by your inability to reach me through my e-mail address hyperlinked in two places on the main index page of the Comanche County OKGenWeb page, as well as one link to my 18 y/o daughter who constructed the page. If there is an arrant link, please let me know, as I could not find one that did not return back to me. I will contact you again when I receive a response from the Library.

They wanted information regarding back copies of 'Prairie Lore'. I'll include their post, but please answer me, also, so I may know this is the current e-mail address for the library. Thank you, LaRae Halsey-Brooks County Coordinator, Comanche County OKGenWeb Project http://www.rootsweb.com/~okcomanc/okgen.htm ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subj: [OKCOMANC-L] Prairie Lore Date: 4/25/99 5:49:36 AM Pacific Daylight Time From: KSSOONERS@aol.com Reply-to: KSSOONERS@aol.com To: OKCOMANC-L@rootsweb.com How can I receive back copies of Prairie Lore???? I wrote the editor. Letter was returned "Box closed. No order." Someone I contacted suggested I e-mail someone else (believe she said he was the librarian.). That e-mail was returned "Bad Address." I contacted the person listed on the Comanche Co web page as the person in charge of the web page. That e-mail was also returned! sbd ---------------------------------------------------- Lawton Public Library Oklahoma/Southwest Oklahoma Genealogy Collection We are proud of the fact that we have an extensive collection of material relating to Oklahoma in our research room.
