Hi, I would like to know if anyone is researching the surname RECORD. I find it frustrating. I get "The Record of...." And things like that. I'm looking for a Man named "Landrum Record" he fathered James Record my grandfather's father. I have no proof of this, but there are other people out there with the same info. I don't know WHO started the info, so maybe there is Proof out there somewhere. The info I have on Landrum Record is: Wife: Mandy Ann WHITE b. 20 May 1869 of Texas Children: 1-William Joshua RECORD b. Potter Co., TX married in Cordell, Washita Co., OK Died: 7 Aug 1964 Oilton, Creek Co., OK 2-James RECORD b. 9 Feb 1891 Amarillo, Potter Co., TX married: Laura Bell Jay 18 Aug 1912 Cordell, Washita Co., OK died: 8 Dec 1924 Oilton, Creek Co., OK 3-Katherine RECORD b. 18 Mar 1893 Hammond, Roger Co., MO married 19 Jan 1910 to Lee C. Smith died Tulsa, Tulsa Co., OK 4-Florence RECORD b. Jul 1895 Hammond, Roger Co., OK died: Rocky, Washita Co., OK 5-Viola RECORD b. 22 July 1896 Hammond, Roger co., MO married Frank Leo Gleason in Cordell, Washita Co,. OK died 23 Dec 1946 Tulsa, Tulsa Co., OK 6-Florinda b. Feb 1900 Fetus, Sherman Co., TX died Chandler, Lincoln Co., OK 7-Lorena RECORD b. Feb 1900 Festus, Sherman Co., TX died soon after 8-Joseph Landrum RECORD b. 17 July 1903 Rocky, Washita Co., OK married 10 Dec 1928 to Jewel Odessa Coynor in Cordell, Washita Co., OK died 3 Apr 1970 Tulsa, Tulsa Co., OK I'd like to know if there are any sites for my locations I've listed. Others researching the same people or area. If you can help me at all, please write: texas@morgan.net

I know how things can snowball. For the record....I appreciate all the questions and answers I see in all the e-mails that I receive. OKROOTS is not the only genealogy mail-list that I subcribe to. I get tons of mail. I actually read every one. You never know when something or someone mentioned in the body of the message and not in the subject line is something that you will be interested in. At this point (and OKROOTS-L has not been going that long) I can pretty much tell from the name of the sender if I am interested, but I do scan through quickly anyway. Everyone please keep up the good work. Lee Ann Seideman Jim Little wrote: > I think I started this by forwarding the request for info about Central > State Hosp in Norman.

Hi, I would like the mail as it is already. Print Q. and A. Dortha

I think I started this by forwarding the request for info about Central State Hosp in Norman. It was our thought that the purpose of this mail list was to glean information from all who participate. While I will agree, some of the messages are of no importance to me specifically, I have learned things that have broadened my knowledge of Oklahoma and have brought us new discovery sources. We would like to see the Q's and A's continue being routed through the OKROOTS. Because of someone's response, each of us may make connections never anticipated. Appreciate all of your contributions, Beth & Jim Little

I hope not too, but you really do need some guidlines, though they should be simple and not too restrictive, so far I haven't seen anyone trying to restrict anything just how to get the info in the subject line so you won't be opening mail relating to Cook when you are not looking for Cook, hope this eases your concerns, Bill Cook In a message dated 9/17/98 4:10:15 PM Central Daylight Time, oden@cdsnet.net writes: << Oh dear, is this going to be another of those lists where a few try to tell everyone else how to post??

If some kind soul could help me find the descendants of Mike and Rebecca Jane Stott or Stotts of Waurika, Jefferson Co., OK., I would be forever grateful.

I say post it to the list, I also had someone in the Norman hospital and was glad to get the information ---------- From: Mingzmom@aol.com To: OKROOTS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [OKROOTS-L] e-mail addresses, please! Date: Thursday, September 17, 1998 8:53 AM Actually, all anyone has to do is hit "reply" - or "forward" and their e-mail software should automatically send info to person requesting it. You have to go out of your way to send mail to the whole group. I heartily agree that most of us don't care about the name of a hospital in Norman. However, everyone is fallible and it's no big deal.

As Bill said, you learn something every time you read a posting. I personally am looking for information on BOWLES & DAILEY but you never know when someone may not post your names but there might be a question about the area they lived in that be of help to you. You can write an answer directly to the person submitting the query if you would prefer it not going on the List.
