Hi, Does anyone know if there is a list of cemeteries with or without names in around Rush Springs, Duncan Chickasha. These are all in Stevens & grady Counties. Researching Henry King WALKER> Thanks, Helen Cast hcast@shore.intercom.net

Hi Charline, If you are talking about the same cemetary that I was you need to know that the last person was buried there in 1992. I know that the funeral home that did the burial was instructed to do so by a request from the dead persons will. They carried it out.It seem like the cemetary had`nt been used for 20 or so years. Let me know? Vera

Dear List, Really need help! My ggrandfather William Ellis COVINGTON was buried June 13, 1920, in the Covington division of Sandy Bar Cemetery, Foster, Stephens, OK. Could anyone tell me what funeral home would probably have been in charge of the service or what newspaper may have carried an obit? Thank you very much any help or suggestions would be appreciated very much. Happy Hunting n' God Bless, Charline Franklin 431 Thunderbird Pt Pittsburg, TX 75686

I am looking for any descendants of my ggg grandmother Lue M. Bays Shilling. I have obtained her death records from Callaway-Smith Funeral Home. She died Dec 1, 1977 in Marlow. She married Charles Ben Shilling Dec 1, 1895 at Denton Co, TX. Her father was Joseph Bays, and mother was Mary Ann Hick. Her surviving relatives were Pearl Shilling Vestal, Ruby Shilling Clements, Bessie Shilling Mercing, Melvin Shilling, Verna Shilling Hanley, and Eva Shilling Worth--all these were children of hers. Mack Bays was also a survivor and he was her brother. If any of these names sound familiar to anyone I sure could use some help on this branch of my family. All the above info was taken from her funeral records. Thanks, Deanna Howard-Dyer

Stoner, > first postmaster....from 'Oklahoma Place Names'. ============= Loyd, That is interesting. Do you have any information on a place called Tucker Post Office? The family story is that that my grandfather was there in the 1890s. It was supposed to be in Pickens County a few miles east of the present-day town of Commanche, Oklahoma. Another family story is that he and a friend, a Doctor Pruitt, liked to camp at a place called Mudd Creek. Jim

To Patrick, STONER..In Stephens County, 7 miles southeast of Duncan. A post office from June 13, 1906, to March 31, 1912. Named for Charles H. Stoner, first postmaster....from 'Oklahoma Place Names'. Loyd Woods

Can you tell me how Stoner cemetery was named? My Grand Father C.H. Stone had a store at "Stoner". Is it possible that it was named for him? I do know "Stoner" the town is no longer there. However, I would love to establish one more bit of family history. I hope you can help. Thanks Patrick L stone patstone@brightok.net

Below is the obit of my dads brother Walter Washington Dale 15 Jan 1968. There is errors in the obit which I will point out at the end of the obit. Would like to hear from anyone mention to further research my uncle Walter Dale. Ex-Rancher Taken by Death. Walter W. Dale, 70 of 106 Spruce, died unexpectedly at his home Monday afternoon. Dale was born in Galhanberg, Neb., July 2, 1897 and moved to Duncan from Beaver in 1961. He was a retired rancher. Survivors include his wife, Dona; a stepson, John Adams, Lawton, five stepdaughters, Delia Conrad, Liberal, Kan., Velma Conrad, Lawton, Thelma King, 302 Maple, Lettie Shephard, Comanche, and Wanda Brannon, Woodward; two brothers, Frank of Liberal, Kan., and Louie of Duncan, 16 great-grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren. Funeral will be at the Oak Avenue Nazarene Church Wednesday at 2 p.m. The Rev. J.T. Drye, pastor, will officiate. He will be assisted by Roy Thomason. Burial will be in Duncan Cemetery under the direction of Brooks Funeral Service. Bearers will be Buddy Jennings, Orvil Jennings, Lodens Jennings, Sidney Richey, Oscar Whaley and John Gann. Errors and Additions to Obit: Walter Born 2 July 1897 Bentonsport, Van Buren Co., IA. Wife, Dona Sego, fathers name Thomas Sego. Stepson, Johns Adams could be from a prior marriage of Dona Sego. Stepdaughter, Delia Conrad, Liberal Kan. I believe this is his stepsister married to his step brother Frank Conrad of Liberal, Kan. Stepdaughter, Velma Conrad I believe this is his stepsister married to his step brother George Conrad. They are both buried at the Forgan Cemetery, Forgan, Beaver Co., OK. Stepdaughter, Thelma King, could be from a prior marriage of Dona Sego. Stepdaughter, Wanda Brannon, could be from a prior marriage of Dona Sego. I have a photo of Walter and Wanda together. Brothers Frank and Louie parents are Joseph M. Conrad and Sarah Lizzie Warner, Sarah second marriage in 1898 after her first husband Willard Edward Dale died in 1897. Walter is buried Section 3, Block 22, Lot 39 Duncan Cemetery, Duncan, OK. Any info greatly appreciated. Paul
