Posted on: McCurtain County, Ok Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ok/McCurtain/11475 Surname: VALLIANT ------------------------- I would like information as to how VALLIANT, Oklahoma received its name,/ . . . its Founder, . . . and in what year it was founded. It was my birth place, but I had never sought this information until now,/ . . . and I'm sure that the history of this community could prove to be very interesting. Therefore, the invitation goes out to all you "History Buffs," to get out your proverbial history shovels and start digging, . . . there's much to be discovered!! To tell the truth, . . . I'm EXCITED about just how much history can be found. It is truly a wonderful experience to have such a website as this to have the opportunity to seek and share information. Thanks to everyone associated with this site. Eld. Knowles
