Posted on: Okmulgee Co. Ok Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Ok/Okmulgee/668 Surname: Cooper, Bingham ------------------------- I've done research in Beggs, also. I found my Beggs obituaries in the Okmulgee newspaper. The paper's archives were distroyed in a fire, but not before they were microfilmed at the local library there. My obits were from the 1950's, so I don't know if they will go back as far as you're looking. FYI-I couldn't find an ancestor of mine in the Beggs Cemetery and was pretty sure she was there. I went to Town Hall and they have the maps of the cemetery hanging on the wall. The map listed my ancestor, along with a baby I was unaware of, and gave dates of death. There is not a marker at the cemetery for either of them. I would never have found them if not for those maps.
