Does your book happen to mention a Prettywater, or Pretty Water, in CREEK county? My paternal grandparents lived there till the late 50's/early 60's, where they had a small farm, then moved to Sapulpa to retire. Last time I was there, the farmhouse was in bad shape, but still standing.. Makes me wish I'd have taken pictures of it, but I was younger then, and wasn't interested in geneaology...
