Ok Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ok/Jefferson/10577 Surname: ------------------------- Claypool was west of Ringling, on the road from Ringling to Waurika. My mother taught school at the consolodated school there in the 1940s--late forties. I was in the 7th grade that year. There was the school, a service station with groceries, and several houses where some of the teachers lived.
