pj, I don't recognize the name Jewel Archer but she could possibly be kin to my Archers. I thought only my line of Archers lived in Pottawatomie but Bill Archer has family from there also. My Archers originally came from middle Tennessee. Thanks for the information. Minnie DAdreeemer@aol.com wrote: > > Hi.

Karen, My grandfathers name was William Henry Collins and his brother-in-law was Jim Anderson. Jims wife was Allie Tate the sister of Minnie Elizabeth Tate Collins, my grandmother. I found them on the 1910 Census of Pottawatomie but no where else in Oklahoma. Minnie also in CA KLPaints@aol.com wrote: > > Minnie, > What was the name of his brother-in-law.

Minnie, What was the name of his brother-in-law. I am researching in Pottawatomie Co., OK also during that period of time.

Hi, The only Archer's in Pottawatomie Co., OK that I know of are the ones in Konawa, OK. They cause me no end of grief because my father's mother's family, the Bates, lived there from 1895 to the 1980's. So whenever I'm researching the Bates and run across the Archer's there I have to stop and think about it :-) As far as I know, I'm not related to those Archers. Are these the ones you are looking for? If so, I can do some lookups for you.

Hi again Bill, The Archers and Collins have been giving me a headache for a long time also. Maybe you can tell me how to order a newspaper for Pottawatomie Co. My Dad was born in a small town called Asher near Salt Creek in 1904. I have no idea what newspapers were published near there. I sent for land records but the clerk said he dident find anything. My grandfather bought land with his brother-in-law before 1910 so there must be a record. If you could find something on the newspapers, it would be great. Thanks, Minnie Bill Archer wrote:

Hi, All. We've been doing lookups on the Kay County page for over a year now from a copy of the "Kay County Honor Roll and Service Record" of WWI veterans that was generously given to me by Allene Niehaus. There were hundreds of entries, with pictures, personal and service information on most veterans. There are also some pictures of nurses, people who supported the war effort in some way, and pictures of mothers who lost their sons in the war. The veterans are mostly Kay County residents, but many were born elsewhere or joined from other Oklahoma counties and states (a lot from Kansas) to serve in the Kay County units. A few months ago, Vicki Ebert offered to scan in her copy so that we could have both the pictures and service records online. I'm pleased to announce that all the scanning is done and I have just completed linking the scans to the names in the index. You can enter from a link on the main Kay County page <http://www.rootsweb.com/~okkay/okkay.htm> or go directly to the Kay County Honor Roll <http://www.rootsweb.com/~okkay/hrmain.htm>. I want to thank Allene and Vicki for making it possible to make this book available online. Harriette

Information included in Record Group 75 from the National Archives is as follows: Records of Predecessor Offices; Records of the Office of Indian Trade; Correspondence of the Superintendents; Records of Trading Posts; Records from the Office of the Secretary of War; Correspondence of the Office of Indian Affairs (Central Office) and Related Records; Records of the Alaska Division of the Bureau of Indian Affairs; and Records of Field Jurisdictions. The Bureau of Indian Affairs, usually known as the Office of Indian Affairs, was established as a separate agency within the War Department in 1824. Congress established the position of Commissioner of Indian Affairs in 1832. The Office of Indian Affairs was transferred in 1849 to the newly created Department of the Interior, where it has remained. In 1947 the Office of Indian Affairs was renamed the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Source: "American Indians, A Select Catalog of National Archives Microfilm Publications." I hope this helps to clarify 'Record Group 75' instead of creating more confusion. Barbara

Would someone who is smarter than me....and that would cover probably everyone on this list and a couple of more....tell me what I am reading. I'm looking at Dawes Index. It tells me that Dave TINER's "Record Group Number" is 75. Does that mean that all "Record Group Number 75" will be his family? Vickie Neill Taylor flip@okplus.com

i don't think blunders by the fbi are any reason for mcveigh not to pay for his admitted crime. the innocent ones he murdered had nothing to do with the fbi just as those innocent folk with korash had nothing to do with that idiots problems with them. what they did there was absolutely wrong and should never have happened and the govt needs to clean that mess and the ones responsible should have to pay for it just like mcveigh. human beings have never been perfect, never will be but i don't think that even had tim been a millionare he could have gotten off. he had/has, a big grudge against the govt because of his percieved notion of a wrong they did to him and he could have changed that by his own actions but he chose to get what he called even against innocent children ad others. it was the military he had a quarrel with,` not okla city.

this stuff really upsets me no end. i am sure that there are others that were involved in this and they should be right there with mcvey when he gets his. his victims were'n given any reprieves, so why should he be? its bad enough that he killed so many adults but those innocent childrens lives when they had nothing to do with whatever he was angry for, anymore than those had in ft. worth with that david korash did. we all get angry with the government wish we could get evn with the inequities that are forced upon us but we don't go around bombing places and killing people that had nothing to do with anything orwe'd be lik those crazy terrorists in the mideast. idon't feel that killers deserve more than their victims, not only did he commit murders, so many, but h committed treason as well. the laws of the land say he should pay and without any question as to his guilt remaining, they should get on with the task at hand and get it over withnso that those families can hopefully get on with thehealing of their shattered lives and find some peace. he said he wanted it done and over and no appeals, i say e should get his wish.
