Hi. I have sent this request to a couple of other list. My moms will celebrate her 89th birthday soon. She has bad heart trouble and very bad arthtitis. It seems like she is in the beginning stages of Alzheimers. My request is this. My brother and I are trying to finish a book and photo album of all the families. We are trying to find some pictures and or articles of the Caudle Family. Isham Wesley Caudle was in Oklahoma from around 1889 to 1908. We believe him and his family were part of one of the OK land runs. Is there a book or newspaper article etc., which might list the people in the land runs? The Caudles we believe were in Rogers County. Isham's son, Ross, was a close friend of Will Rogers. My brother and I wish to thank everyone on this list for their help now and in the past. Not only the list members, but the List Mom has made this list as great as it is. May God Bless You and Yours to all. Thanks Avie and Paul

I would like to contact Peg Martin Bellard who left a message on the OKROOTS list in 1999 looking for information on the Joor family. Apparently her e-mail address has been changed, and my message was returned. Please contact me. Thanks. Liz Noble

The book contains100 pages so I'm not even a quarter of the way thru it yet. It would have been much quicker if I had simply scanned the pages and saved them as graphics but I wanted the search engines to be able to find the names so it's taking much longer as I have to scan the pages in, run them thru a text conversion program and then fix the mistakes the program makes <g>. And, as most of you know scanning photos and getting them ready to go on-line is also time consuming. This book has a lot of photos. I'll let everyone know when the next installment is up.

Great job, Linda! How many pages long is the book? My Hall family came from SC right around 1900 to Logan County, but I wonder if this Hall family may be related. I see on page 7 that H.C. Hall, the founder of Tulsa, went from Tennessee to Kansas in 1869, and that he and J.M. Hall, his brother, settled in Tulsa in 1882. This was not the route or timing of my family, but does anyone have more details on their family? What were the complete names of H.C. and J.M.? They are probably a completely separate Hall family from mine, but it is always worth looking into!

The ggrandaughter of J M Hall (one of the founders) of Tulsa has given me permission to put the book "The Beginning of Tulsa" on the web. This book was written in 1927, updated in 1933 and has been out of print and almost impossible to find since the mid 1930s. This is a fabulous resource for those who are searching for early Tulsa ancestors. Mr. Hall was one of the first men in Tulsa and his book contains lots of names and history.

Listers, Are you ready to look for a needle in a haystack? Could someone tell me if there was a 1910 Census? I'm looking for William {Franklin?} Yeager/Yager He was born in 1830 in Laurel, Ky. He was in Yale, Johnson Co. Ark. in 1900. I can't find him anywhere. He was married to Mary Ann Jones. He is my G-Gran'dad. His son, David died in Yale, Ark. His wife remarried. Some of the children of David were in Oklahoma City, Guthrie, Dover, Chickasha, Eldorado & Kingfisher. Their names were Jesse Albert, Cora Yeager Short, Hattie Yeager Arhrnsbrak, Joseph Young, [my Dad] & David Anderson Yeager. Would appreciate anything you could tell me. Thanks, Guilda Yeager Teague

There is also a Bird Creek that runs north of Tulsa around Turley, Sperry, and Skiatook, OK

Guilda, There were not many 1910 census listings. Here is the only other one I found on Ancestry. You might need to look at some State indexes. Good luck.
