The Tulsa Society has published some books on the cemeteries in this area. I found the graves of my g-grandfather and gg-grandfather in one of their books. Both had died back in Indian Territory before 1900. They were in a small cemetery (about 14 graves) on a ranch in the Bixby bottom. Anyway, you might try checking their books.

Is there someone out there who would do a cemetery look up for me in the Shamrock cemetery. If there is a public library in Shamrock and someone has the address for them or their phone number that would be ok and I can either write or call. Thanks. Ellen

Hello, I am so releived to hear this. I know that sometimes things happen. Perhaps I will be better able to send out a query later on my Cockrell family of Creek County, Oklahoma.

Friends, I am sending this as my new email address. I am using [email protected] as my new address. To all my contacts, I wish good will. Stay in contact. Best wishes to all from Bob Marden who is sometimes known as the spider.

I am seeking information about Micayah SCOTT and his family. According to the little information that I have, he resided near Childers Station, Indian Territory in 1886. Other family names that I can provide at this time, include his children, John W. Scott - born abt 1866, Elizabeth Scott born abt 1868, Eveline Scott born abt 1870, Rebecca Scott born abt 1873, Francis Scott born about 1877, and (?) Scott born about 1877 (?). Apparently Micayah Scott declined admission to the Cherokee roll, but as years went on, some of his family applied for re-admission. I would like to find the information that was on that application, and if it was accepted. I have been unable to find the names on the original rolls. This is a project that I am helping a friend with, so I don't have a lot of information! Thanks for any you can provide! Sue Peden Miller

I'm also looking for information on a murder that took place about 1917 in the Happy Corner area. I don't know who was murdered, but the young man who stood trial was Lewis(Louie) ALEXANDER. He was 17 at the time. Any idea where I would start my search. Thanks Lauri in Idaho

I'm looking for an obituary for Alice Rowell d. 31 May 1962 in Drumright. Any idea what newspaper I would look in for this? Thanks Lauri in Idaho

Thanks for responding, The BREWER line is about 3 generations MO, they are from around Thayer, what little I have on the Beckhams (married in) they were from that area as well, but since they are the marry-ins they may be from AR. The Boykins came from IL to MO, but there are some in AR, a different branch, but related. Thanks again.

I'm researching MONTGOMERY and BARLOW. It is my understanding that Jack D. MONTGOMERY worked for Barnsdell Oil Co. in 1914. I have marriage record between him and Viola Fern BARLOW for 1914.

In a message dated 8/31/98 11:47:18 PM US Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: > Do any of these names sound familiar to anyone? Thanks, Jan Are you sure they're native Missourians? BREWERs are a huge family in Stone Co, AR (native to Wayne Co, TN), as are BECKHAMs. Hope this helps some little bit.

Good Evening, My lady of mystery is my great grandmother Columbia Porter BRUNHAM/BRANHAM/BRANNON/BRENNON HARRIS CARNEY ARCHER She went by the Christian name of Porter. Born abt. 1865 d. Aug 23, 1924 either 11 miles north of Sapulpa (her residence) or 11 miles north of Bristow, the funeral home records in Bristow only state 11 miles north, but not of what town. Porter Archer is buried in the Sunrise Cemetery. She married 3 times that I know of. First to Jefferson HARRIS on January 17, 1882 in Franklin County, AR, they had 5 children in the 8-10 years they were married, then my great grandfather Chesterfield M. (probably Monroe) CARNEY on June 12, 1892 in Crawford County, AR, they had one child, my grandmother Galeenah CARNEY (aka: Lena) and finally she married George W. ARCHER on Sept. 11, 1898, they had one son Homer ARCHER. The funeral home records show she was a widow when she died and my aunts say Homer went to live with either a LIVINGSTON or HEAD family. Porter's HARRIS children were raised by their father. Porter and my g-grandfather Chesterfield fought constantly over the custody of Little Lena and kidnapped her back and forth when she was small. Chesterfield finally being the victor and managed to hide her for several years. Only Homer ARCHER was raised by his mother until her death. This is all I know about my great-grandmother. I just recently found out about the Sapulpa connection, and have not check those census records as yet. However, I did check the 1910 and 1920 census' for Bristow and could not locate her in them. Do any of these names sound familiar to anyone? Are there any relatives out there? Can you help me figure out Porter's lineage? Besides the census records can anyone suggest another place to look? Thank you for your time and help. Jan -- ANNOUNCEMENT: OUR WEBPAGE IS FINALLY UPDATED, BACK UP AND RUNNING, PLEASE COME BY FOR A VISIT. IT'S NOW OVER 23,300 NAMES.

Good Evening, My father Earl BOYKIN was born in Drumright on March 18, 1925 to my grandparents Edward Theodore BOYKIN and Felicia BREWER. My grandmother says they were there looking for work when he was born and staying with her sister (unfortunately I didn't write down in my notes WHICH sister) and her husband. The sister's names were:Althea Hagerbaumer BREWER md. Clarence PIRTLE, (I know he was a police officer in Tulsa in later years), Pauline BREWER md. Howell Jack HANSELL, and Coeta BREWER md. Noble Riley BECKHAM. My question why were these Native Missourians in Drumright during 1925, the oil boom was pretty much over by then, but I do know my grandfather worked in the oilfield according to my father's birth certificate. I would like to be able to find out, what company he worked for and if the rascal had a police record (most likely for enjoying the spirits and fisticuffs-although his father was arrested for bootlegging). Can anyone give me any ideas as to how I can find answers to this? Do any of these names sound familiar to anyone?
