Hi, I'm new to your list. I have family living in Bartlesville. I'm coming to Bartlesville for a family visit and to do some research (on Nov 11-14). I was just wondering if any of you are living there or have researched there, so that you could make some suggestions as to where I should definitely go while I'm there? I know I'll be visiting the Memorial Park cemetery, where my grandma and grandpa BURTON are buried. I would be glad to take photographs of tombstones if anyone needs one from that cemetery. I may also visit the White Rose Cemetery where some of my grandfather's family was buried. Again, if I make it there, I'll be glad to take pictures for anyone who asks. Any thoughts or pointers on local libraries, historical societies, courthouses, etc.? Here's my family's information in case any of you are researching the same information: Alvin BURTON, b. 23 sep 1897, Warsaw, Benton, Missouri; d 10 feb 1973, Bartlesville, Washington, OK; married Iva Ellen RANDALL, b. 3 Dec 1900, Mound City, Holt, Missouri; d 3 Apr 1993, Bartlesville, Washington, OK. Also, I've been told we are descendants of Chief RED CLOUD or he was an uncle to my descendants. RED CLOUD used to visit our family, specifically, my ggrandmother, Ada Myrtle DILLON, b. 26 Mar 1867, in Red Oak, Hardin, Iowa. Ada married Jacob Charles RANDALL. Ada died 10 Jul 1966 in El Dorado, Butler, Kansas. Regarding the BURTON line, Alvin's sisters were both buried at the White Rose Cemetery. They were Kittie BURTON (married Charlie FRANKLIN), b. 22 Nov 1894, Warsaw, Benton, Missouri; d. 24 Jan 1968 in Bartlesville; and Daisy M.

If any of this sounds familiar, PLEASE contact me at laurenlacava@yahoo.com. From my Grandfather's blacked out adoption records we have gathered the following information about his birth families: Maternal: His mother was born in 1918 (possibly January 1918?), she was the eldest of two girls. She attended a junior college for one year, presumably in 1935-1936, and then attended -------- Acadamy, which was not in her home town. She attended this unknown Acadamy Dec and January of 1936/1937. In the adoption records she was listed as "Le", possibly initials of her real name? "Le" had an 11 year old sister during this time, and her name might have been Elizabeth. "Le's" mother was 39 during this time, born in 1987/1989 of Swedish descent. We think she was born in or around Hutchinson, Kansas. She had a twin sister, 2 other siblings (1 brother, 1 sister). She graduated high school and attended business college, and was her husband's secretary before they married. "Le's" father was 40 during this time, born in 1896/1897. In 1937 he owned and operated ------ Motor Co. in their hometown, owned "considerable" real estate and they were "building a beautiful new home". He might have been born in Paris, TX, and his last name may begin with a "G", and end with something like "ary", "ray" or "ry". Paternal: His father was 20 years old during this time, born in 1916/17, and might be named "Jack". His last name is very short, 3 letters, possibly 4 small letters. His parents were very wealthy, had oil holdings and real estate in their home town, which is only 4 or 5 characters long. The town had 2 colleges at the time, one A&M, and the other military. He had 2 brothers and 3 sisters. Enid or Tulsa might be probably home towns.
