Appears Foster was a vetern of the Civil War.

Do you have any names for your family? I have an Amos . Rikard born in Alabama in 1892 but moved to OK or TX in his youth. I haven't been able to trace back any further than that so far.

I have at least two family members in the list of original land owners for Lincoln Co. Is there a web site that deals with this information? Where can I obtain more information about the land run of '91'? Is there plat maps available for different Lincoln Co. townships about 1900? Thank you Clifford Cross

Dear Marie, I am looking also for information about Lewis Estes, he was supposedly one of my grandmothers cousins. Him and Henry were related in so way or another according to my grandmother Goldie Ray Estes but she is no longer with us to ask, I just remember that she told me that Lewis and Henry babysat her and she went to visit them in the Stroud jail. Her father was Alfred Perry Estes. How are we related?

Different Sarah, mine was born in Ohio in 1863. Strange they ended up in the same county, in OK.

I have little of nothing on Sarah, only the date of their marriage 19 June 1855 in Columbia Co. PA and that she was born in PA. I don't know who her parents were, where she was born and when or where she died. I have been looking for 2 years with no luck. Jacob and Sarah were my ggrandparents. Any information you can give me would be appreciated. I have more information on Jacob and their decendants.

I have quite a bit of information on this family line and even a photo of James, Rebecca and 4 of their children I would be happy to share. This is my husband's direct line. Please contact me at gramaselee@yahoo.com.

Do you have anything on Sarah Deemer She was my grandfathers sister
