Jacque, After reading a few inquiries see I could add a bit more info. My research is for Robert Blye b. c.1853 d. 1927 in Ok. and Vicey Angeline Bynum Blye b. c.1855 in Ar. They had the following children that I know of. Robert A., b. c1876 in Ar., Mary E. b. c.1878 in Ar., Visey E. b. c.1879 in Ar., Dora Belle [my gg-grandmother] b. Jan.1, 1880 in Ar., Linnie, Andrew, [may be Robert Andrew], Kate, Alise, Ruby, Cara. Possibly moved to S.E. Ok. about 1900. Had a farm and Robert Blye Sr. became a county judge at some point Donna [Dlbh2ofall@aol.com]

Actually I am still in the beginnings of my research. I am trying to pin down exactly which county my ancestors are from and Push is one of them. The Antlers area. The surname I am researching in Blye. My name is Donna Boden and my e-mail is Dlbh2ofall@aol.com. Thanks

Donna, There is NOT a place on the web site to enter your name and surnames. You submit them to me and I put them on the web site with a link to your email if anyone wants to talk to you about your surnames. I am currently updating the site so you need to send them to me. Once the new page is up, there will be links to submit queries, bios, obits, deeds, pensions and wills of surnames you are researching in Pushmataha County. I will send an email to everyone who is listed as a researcher and also to the Push Co list when it is up and running.

Thanks for writing, it could very well be Albion instead of Albany. I only heard Albany from my father who doesn't remember his mother since she died when he was 2 years old. I only started my family tree a year ago last April. The only information I had was all word of mouth. I have found out that word of mouth is not always accurate, lol. Thank you so much now I have another avenue to research. Carol Davis auntiemama@aol.com

Hello, I am trying to find out more about my grandparents and and great-grandparents. The names are DAVIS, HILL, HUBBARD. 1----George Washington Davis of Georgia -m- Millie Ann Hubbard of Tennessee 2----Noah Ernest Davis of Tuskahoma, Pushmataha Region, I.T.

I went to the site and thought I had entered correctly but maybe I didn't. I entered Blye, but I didn't see anywhere to enter my name. Must be missing something. Will go back again later. If I don't get it in, the just skip me. Donna Boden

Donna, I would be glad to, but I need the surnames you are looking for in Push Co. If you will go to the current site http://www.rootsweb.com/~okpushma you will see how they are set up -- Name of researcher and then the surnames of who they are looking for. Also, could I add your last name on the list? If you don't want me to, I can just put your first name and your email address as a link.

Well, Kevin, I think there isn't anything else I can add to what you have said, except maybe suggest that she join the LOCKE surname list hosted by rootsweb. I recently met a cousin online with the last name of LOCKE and she has a web site at: http://www.yucca.net/jglocke/ Although it starts out with GORE info. Joyce LOCKE is the owner of the web site.

Hello List, This is a little off topic, but I could use some suggestions. A visitor to some of my pages has sent a request that I could use a bit of guidance on. Thomas lives in Austin, TX. He has a Webelos Cub Scout pack that will be getting their Arrows of Light Awards in February and he was assigned the job of finding the arrows for the boys. He would like to find six (6) authenic arrows for their ceremony, which would really be a plus for the boys. Can any of you tell me how he could go about finding arrows for the scouts?

I am looking for the Robert Blye family that lived in the Antlers, Hugo, Grant area push cty. or Choctaw cty. after 1900. Robert Blye was supposedly a county judge at one time. His wife was Vicey Angeline Bynum Blye and his children that I know of were Robert A., Mary E., Vicey C., Dora Belle, Kate, Linnie, Cara. Dora Belle was married to William Stripling and lived with her parents along with her children Walter, Claude, Linnie, Lonnie, Hester, Lucille, Ruth, one still living. Robert died in 1927. His farm was possibably close to the red river. Donna Boden
