    3. Good Morning, I am hoping for all of your help... I have been searching for my OXFORD roots which end in Oklahoma. My hope was for a Census record in 1890 for Oxfords in Muskogee Okla. I did not realize that Oklahoma did not have one till now. I have Oxfords born and buried in Oklahoma from all sides of my family. I have been unable to find where my ggGrandfather was from. His name was John Collins Oxford b. ?? he married Susan Cate in 1868 Hopkins County Tx. They had a son born in 1888 in Muskogee, Okla named Charlie M. Oxford. The majority of the Oxford's are buried in Lehigh Cemetery in Lehigh, Okla. I have requested death certificates from Okla. City but was told that all of the records were destroyed by fire. I know that the family lived and grew up in the Atoka, Colgate, Lehigh area's and that another of John's sons married in 1904 Atoka, Indian Terr. this marriage record I have. Another of John's children Hershel Oxford was said to have died in the Civil war at Ft. Seal by being kicked in the head by a muel. But again, I have no records just here say. I would greatly appricate any assistance from anyone or direction that I may turn to get past this point in my history. Thank you, Debbie Oxford Long
