    1. [OKKAY-L] Bailey Surname
    2. Dear Fellow Genealogist: Please take a look at the information below and see if you recognize either Bailey family: LEO W. BAILEY b: approximately 1908-1912 in OK, m: Mabel Iva Morland Dec 18, 1929 in Newkirk, (KAY COUNTY) Oklahoma. Leo had a brother named GROVER and his father's name was WILLIAM. Leo and Mabel both lived in Tonkawa, OK (Kay County) at the time of marriage. Issue: ROBERT EUGENE BAILEY, October 24, 1929 in Billings (NOBLE COUNTY) Oklahoma. This area is remembered by some as the Three Sands Oil Field area. Robert was my father-in-law. He died in 1984 in Tulsa, OK. Sources of above dates and places come from Robert's birth certificate and the marriage license of Leo and Mabel. Robert's birth certificate lists Leo's place of birth as OK. It also lists Leo's age as 20 on his last birthday and his occupation as farmer living in the township of Glen Rose on Robert's date of birth. Also searching for info on a WILLIAM BAILEY b: Sept 24, 1883 in MO, d: Oct 11, 1958 in Blackwell, Kay CO, OK. Father: Joe O. Bailey; Mother: Sarah Myers. Last known residence: 1003 W Lincoln, Blackwell, OK. Spouse: Iva Pearl Bailey. Funeral records indicated WILLIAM was a retired farmer from the Billings, OK area. Proceeded in death by 4 children. Sons: Grover of Carson City, CO, James of KS and Archie of Tonkawa, Kay CO., OK. Sisters: Corda Pruiett and Maude Gilbert. Brothers: Joe of Denver, Walter and Otis (possibly a Quinton too) of Clinton, MO I am desperately trying to prove whether or not this William is the father of Leo listed above. If it is, I've made a major break-through in my research. Your help is greatly appreciated. Gayla Bailey
