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.
