Hello Sandra, You are not alone I assure you. It just seems that way when everyone is so quiet. I had hoped when I joined this list that I might find out something about my husbands family. We have been told that his grandmother Nancy C Haskett is Cherokee Indian but haven't been able to fine any information on her family. WILLIAM ALEXANDER1 JONES was born November 1854 in Ga, and died February 17, 1929 in Dallas, Tx. He married NANCY CAROLINE HASKETT in Marion Co, Ark. She was born January 1858 in Ark, and died October 11, 1903 in McIntosh Co,Ok. Children of WILLIAM JONES and NANCY HASKETT are: i. BABY GIRL2 JONES. ii. CHARLOTTE JONES, b. September 1879, Ark; m. JOE HENDERSON. 2. iii. WILLIAM HOMER JONES, b. April 1882, MO. 3. iv. LAVINA MARYBELLE JONES, b. February 20, 1884, Ark; d. June 25, 1961, Yuma, Arizona. 4. v. JOHN FARMER JONES, b. October 16, 1885, Mountain Home, Ark; d. January 11, 1954, Happy Hollow, Lenna, Oklahoma. vi. LONA MARTHA JONES, b. September 1888, Ind Terr, Ok. 5. vii. ANDREW HUBBARD JONES, b. February 1890, Ark. 6. viii. NETTIE LOU JONES, b. February 22, 1891, Ind Terr, Ok; d. February 15, 1949, Ravia, Oklahoma (Johnston County). (My mother-in-law) 7. ix. BEAULAH A JONES, b. September 1896, Ind Terr, Ok. 8. x. CAM DELBERT JONES, b. Private, Ind Terr, Ok. Any information on these people would be greatly appreaciated. I'm willing to share what I have on the descendants.

Well, this is exciting. I hadn't heard anything so had forgotten about being on this list. I have so much family from McIntosh county, I don't know where to start. Looking for Jernigan, Hughes,Horn, Morgan, Livesay, McDonald, Dixson, Self, and maybe next time I'll add some more. Hope we have an active list ! Dixie in Arizona

I am so glad to see everyone here. No I don't live in Eufaula yet. My husband and I are looking for some property, but haven't found any yet. I am the owner of [email protected] and [email protected] I have a forum that I own. And many other mailing lists. I wanted to make sure that there was a McIntosh Co., Page for us Genealogists. I was so happy to find it. I have some projects that I am starting up for Eufaula. Well, take care. Also if anyone knows of some nice property for sale please let me know privately. Thanks Sandra

Hello List, My name is Donna BAILEY from PITTSBURG Co. in Oklahoma. I am researching family names of BAILEY, WINTERS, BAKER, BROWN, BLOOD, BARNHILL, NORRIS, OTT, PENDERGRASS, POLLOCK, STARR. I have family which was born or attended elementary school in southern McIntosh County. Any connection to the above mentioned names? Thanks, Donna

Hello I am here too. Although no one ever sends any email :( Take care Karen

Not much, I was new to this list and just wanted to know if this was a real new list where there were just a couple people on or if this list has been going awhile and there were lots of people on it? I am doing great. I am glad that we have this list up and going? Take Care. Sandra

What's up?

No, your not the only one on the list. What's up? Mary Ann

Hi everyone. So am I the only one on this list or are there others on here? Sincerely, Sandra Listowner of: [email protected] [email protected]

I'm looking for information on Boone YATES and his wife Belle BLACKSTONE. They may have been in McIntosh County between 1910-1925. I would appreciate information about any YATES or BLACKSTONEs that were in the area. Thank you.

Karla Could you be referring to the "Trail of Tears". I have family that reside in McIntosh County, and know that this is a big production each year. I believe around the town of Eufaula. Doug

Does anyone know the trail route from Georgia to Oklahoma called the McIntosh Trail?

I just joind this list and am hoping you may be able to help me find info about my great-great-grandfather.....specifically his name...:-) My great-grandmother was Mary HENSON, b. 1861, McIntosh Co, d. 1907 in McIntosh Co., m. John A. BIAS in Ozark Co., MO 1871. I found a census record of a Nancy HENSON with daughter Mary (birthdate matched) and son William in Ozark Co., MO. Unfortunately apparently the father had died before this census was taken. Every researcher of our line has gotten stumped with this and we can go no further until we find his name. Any help most appreciated.

Joe, That sounds like the Weogufkee Cemetery. This is what we have on it: ************************** Weogufkee Cemetery Located 2 miles west of Hanna on EW125 then 1/2 miles south on the dirt road just before you cross over the Indian Nations Turnpike. Floy Hughey 5 Dec 1912 4 Apr 1942 Dollie J. Pendley 18 Feb 1873 5 Jan 1907 w/o M. S. Pendley Ester Ware Depue 21 Apr 1905 6 May 1907 2 yr 15 days E. T. P. no dates no dates Ruby Pendley 1905 only date infant of Laura & Larkin S. M. Pendley no dates no dates 12 KY Cav. Infant Pendley 5 Aug 1905 12 Aug 1905 s/o Dollie J. Pendley Laura E. Pendley 1881 1910 w/o Larkin Pendley ***************** But this is only a few of the burials there. It is mostly an Indian Cemetery. It sits just next to the Weogufkee Church which is still active. We'd be happy to list any other burials that you know of there.

Hello List, My ggrandmother, Parthenia M Davis Spillers, is buried in a cemetery located outside of Hanna and close to the Indian Nation Turnpike. I have been told that it is an Indian cemetery. Does anyone know the name of the cemetery, the history of the cemetery and if it is an Indian Cemetery. At the time of her death my ggrandmother lived in Weleetka. My ggrandparents were in the Hanna area around 1901 and they had a son who died in there before they moved. My ggrandmother wanted to be buried next to her son. So there would be two Spillers buried in the cemetery near Hanna. Thanks Joe

Would whoever submitted the Morey Cemetery information please contact me. I meant to include your name and address along with the listing but left it out. Another Morey descendant who is curious about who submitted the information called the omission to my attention.

Sandy, If you still need the obituary information. The Indian Journal would probably have printed a copy of the obituary you need, but the best way to get a copy would probably be to get it from the newspaper archives at the Oklahoma Historical Society in Oklahoma City.
