Names on permanent list other than family: GREENLEE BOAZMAN A note on the WPA Index: (I figure someone will ask) The WPA index is a MASSIVE index of all newspapers in the Oklahoma archives before 1940. If a date for a newspaper lookup comes across my sights, I set it into AT LEAST a WPA index lookup. Frequently, I cannot get to a microfilm reader either in the Library or the Newspaper room, so I take my "WPA list and my "other" list and work on that. I go to the OHS almost daily, except weekends, unless I am in the mood to fight the crowds on Saturday. I usually do my lookups in this order: MONDAY: Census TUES: Newspapers WEDS: Indian Archives (if I have any) THURS: Books FRIDAY Newspapers I spend 3-4 hours there in the morning, Sometimes I return Monday afternoon because it is the one day they are open late. (til 8 pm) And before you ask...yes....it is an obsession. 8) Nalora
