>Hi, my name is Rebecca Lynn YORK (I go by my maiden name) and I live in northern Idaho. I am new to this list and am researching YORK, STEWART, and many more from other parts of the Country. >The counties in OK that seem to have had my YORK/STEWART line are Pontotoc, Stephens, Jefferson, Carter, and possibly Greer. Towns are York - IT, Kiowa, Ryan, Comanche, Healdton, Terral, Rush Springs, Duncan and Hollis. The Stewart's seem to have been born mostly in TX, don't know exactly where yet. > >If anyone on this list knows the history (or where I can find out about it) of York - Indian Territory, I'd sure like to know. I do know it had a post office from 1894 to 1914 and was named after the first postmaster and York is no longer there. Joseph F. York seems to have been my greatgreatgrandfather. I should have joined this list long ago as I do have photos on the Stephens Co. website thanks to Sheri and have found Sheri's site very useful, helpful and very well done! > >Thank you, >Rebecca York > *~Y~* *~B~* >My York and Baer Family: >http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ouryorks >dalton@nidlink.com > > >==== OKGEN Mailing List ==== >Online sources for locating a Town or County >http://www.rootsweb.com/~okgenweb/locatetown.htm >
