Ok Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ok/Jefferson/530 Surname: Brandon, Nall, Meador, Sevier, Taylor ------------------------- Several years ago, a history of Jeff Co Families was published. There was a brief history of Jeff Co and of its towns written by a Jon Harris. He mentioned that there were several post offices that came and went prior to the turn of the century. He said the first was Baldwin located on Beaver Creek, then reloacted to Ryan in 1893. The second PO was Veto. Others that followed were Sugg, Peery, Keith, Opie, Lindwood, Redriver and Moneka. In the section about Waurika, he wrote that the town on the west side of the 98th Meridian was in Kiowa-Comance territory. Moneka was on the east side of the line in Pickens Co, Chicasaw Nation. He gave no exact location for Peery.
