    1. [OKTulsa] "Growing Up With Tulsa"
    2. I have just moved the "Growing Up With Tulsa" pages to the books section at Rootsweb Freepages. This book was written and self published by Blanche Opal Kern Schad of Tulsa, OK. She was a Harrison descendant and first cousin to my G-grandfather, Herman Harrison who lived in Saunders Co., Nebraska. Opal's mother Emma Justine Harrison and my GG-grandfather Richard Harrison (Cuming Co., NE) were siblings. Emma and her husband Charles Wesley Kern went from Saunders Co., NE to OK Territory in 1893 and settled in Tulsa. This is a story of the family and Opal and her older siblings and later their own families growing up with Tulsa from territorial days to statehood and through 2 World Wars, etc. Opal's son Harry of Tulsa, OK gave me permission to transcribe and put his mother's book online. It is not available, except at the Tulsa library and by Opal's immediate family. Please update your bookmarks. There are currently all but 3 chapters now online and more will be added as time permits. Please be sure to check back often. <A HREF="http://freepages.books.rootsweb.com/~irishrose/tulsa/index.html">Growing Up With Tulsa</A> http://freepages.books.rootsweb.com/~irishrose/tulsa/index.html Always digging for my roots, Kathie Harrison Lancaster Co.
