Hi Linda, I also enjoy reading the old Muskogee Co Newspapers. My family was in Wainwright and Boynton area 1900-1946. I recently was the beneficiary of many posts made by "George E. Miller" <llm@crosstel.net> of Webber Falls, covering the local news carried by the Muskogee Phoenix. I also enjoy visiting your lib and museum when I visit the ole country! Your Muskogee Lib has several reels of film covering the newspapers of Wainwright ca 1900-1920. Newspapers in Wainwright!! Yes.
