Researching the surnames GANS, GANSS, GANTZ, MOBLEY, MYERS, YOCUM, FRENCH. The GANS and GANSS spelling comes from Prussia, Germany from 1687...traveled to America aboard the ship "Two Brothers" to Philadelphia, PA in the 1800's....settled in and around York, PA. Spelling eventually changed to GANTZ. The GANTZES I am researching along with all the other surnames listed above set roots in Oklahoma....Sapulpa and surrounding towns, in the early 1900's. Any one researching these names in this area, please contact me. Thank you. Jerri [email protected]

Hi all -- can anyone tell me what the other flags were as referred to in the following on the State of Oklahoma page? Anyone know what the Oklahoma flag looked like before 1925? Know of any online pictures? http://www.state.ok.us/osfdocs/stinfo.html The present Oklahoma State Flag adopted by the State Legislature in 1925, is Oklahoma's 14th flag. This shows a sky blue field with a central device: an Indian war shield of tan buckskin showing small crosses on the face -- the Indian design for stars -- and seven eagle feathers pendent for the edge of the shield. An Indian peace pipe (calumet) with a pipestone bowl and a tassel at the end of the pipestem lies on the shield; above the Indian peace pipe is an olive branch, the white man's emblem of peace.

Marti, The only thing I could find about previous flags is the following: FLAG. The original 1911 flag of Oklahoma depicted a star on a red field. After the Russian Revolution, however, that color and the star became associated with Communism, and in 1924 a contest was held to choose a new design. The flag symbolizes the state's American Indian heritage: the sky blue field is from an old Choctaw flag, and the rawhide shield is patterned after that of an Osage warrior. A crossed calumet, or ceremonial pipe, and olive branch signify peace. The name Oklahoma was added in 1941. Joyce S.

Has anyone on this list used the school records from Sapulpa, and do you know what kind of information can be gleaned from them? I have a mystery man in Sapulpa while his children where school aged, and I'm hoping these records, if they exist, can shed some light on the situation. Thanks much in advance, Tracy in WI

Sorry to do this to the list but I'm having trouble with my email. I'm just checking to see if I can get this posted to list. Thanks, Cathy.

Hi I am looking for James B Martin b in Jasper Co MO in 1846 to Hartwell MARTIN and his wife Sarah. By 1860 the familiy had moved to Bourbon Co ks. 14 April 1875 James married Lucy CRAIN. Lucy was his brother's sister's wife, making her not only my aunt my marriage, but also by blood. Lucy was born in Washington CO IL in 1852. The couple was married in Oswego, Labette Co KS. Lucy's parents were Lewis Wesley CRAIN and Sally COX. Sometime before the turn of the century, they moved on to Depew, Creek Co OK. The couple appear in the 1910 Census living on Ready Avenue. The census say's Lucy was the mother of 6 children with only two surviving. James operated a saw mill in Depew. This was a second marriage for both of them. Jame's first will Mary B ALLOWAY was declared insane and he divorced her. Lucy's first husband, Abner GIBSON died not too long after their marriage. -- Mailto:[email protected] Maxine Correa Where are YOU??? http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/h/i/a/Nora-Ann-Hiatt-WA/

Jack, thanks for your response. I think the cemetery I have in mind is the Mounds Cem. I have been there before. Just couldn't think of it before. Anyway, I am trying to locatethe grave of Luella Radell Marden. My grandmother has a note in her Bible that Luella was born dead at Kiefer in 1913. I do not have the Bible handy so I can know the exact date. I assume that she was buried as near to Kiefer as possible. I have been to the Mounds Cem., but when I was there, I didn't realize that Luella may have been buried there. Consequently, I didn't look for the grave. Any help appreciated.
