My husband's paternal grandparents were Icy Dow Carpenter Wilson and George Thomas Carpenter of Fairview. Both are buried in Major County. Icy's second husband was Fred Wilson, who was also in Fairview. I believe that Cordelia McCray Dow (mother of Icy) and Frances "Fannie" Ewing Carpenter (mother of George Thomas Carpenter) are buried in Major County. His maternal grandparents were William Thomas Smith and Mae Irene Spivey Smith. They lived in Fairview and are buried there. Mae's parents were Temple Cullen Spivey and Isabella McBride Spivey. Any historical/genalogical information greatly appreciated and I am willing to exchange information. Phyllis Wilson Carpenter
Phyllis, I have record of a George Carpenter b. 1888 who had daughter Frances Josephine Carpenter b. 3 Dec 1918 in Seiling OK. The names are similar. Could this be the family you are inquiring about?
