Clifton Record May 28, 2002 Supporters Seek Help In Saving Historic Coon Creek School Building THE HISTORIC COON CREEK SCHOOL BUILDING, used as a community center since 1944, is in danger of collapsing if renovations are not made. Coon Creek residents are seeking funds to help fund a restoration of the structure. Enlarge this photo... LAGUNA PARK — Members of the Coon Creek Good Neighbor Club are soliciting funds to help preserve the historic Coon Creek School building, located on Farm Road 56 approximately two miles south of Laguna Park. In use as a school from 1929 through 1944, the building since has been utilized by area residents as a community center. “After the school closed, Coon Creek residents bought the building, and our ladies’ club, known as the Coon Creek Good Neighbor Club, has maintained it,” said club member Mary Gouldman Kleypas. “The building, a Coon Creek community landmark, is now in great danger of collapsing if extensive work is not done on it.” Built in 1929, the building was used for classes until the school consolidated with the Clifton school district in 1944. The 73-year-old, three-room building, housed classes from grades one through 10. Few buildings of its type remain standing, Kleypas noted. “We are sure those who have ties to Coon Creek will want to help save the old school building. Thank you in advance for your help,” Kleypas concluded. Donations can be submitted to Coon Creek Good Neighbor Club, c/o Mary Gouldman Kleypas, P.O. Box 5507, Laguna Park, TX 76644-5507. _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com

We, Gramdma and Grandpa, are off Monday to Colorado Springs for our oldest grandsons graduation from the Air Force Academy. He was one of the youngest candidates accepted to the Academy four years ago. He was one of the smallest, physically, in his class. He will be graduating in the top 10% of his class, has applied and been accepted to Pilot Training School. He had worked very hard and has made us very proud. All this and he was home schooled... Is our education system in trouble or not? Glen OKC -- --------------A4861C17FCED75562AFA7A03--

Hi all, As most of you know, a very, VERY special holiday is coming up. I would like to take this time to honor all those that have participated in our liberty & sweet freedom. Let us hear from you about your hero, male & female, & what war they were in, even if it goes back to the Revolutionary War, or beyond.

Interested in finding descendants of Minnie Mae Boswell Claybrook. Minnie was b. Jan. 1872 AL d. 1920 in Bosque Co. She married Joseph E. Claybrook 11-23-1890 in Bosque Co. Minnie's father was James William Boswell b. 1833 in Talbot Co. GA d. 1903. James was the brother of my GGGF Thomas Moses Boswell. Any help appreciated. Linda

I really don't know. I just know Meary O. Pogue married a Farr, and she died in Bosque, at Clifton I think. Thanks Darlene

Does anyone know the family of Meary O. Farr who died in 1974 in Bosque, Tx.? She is a great Aunt, and I would like to find her family for genealogy information. Thanks Darlene

Still looking for info on Mahala Lafone, g'daughter of Isaac Lafone and neice of William, all from NC. Mahala b. 1852, m. Daniel Sheppard 27 July 1882 and disappeared from Catawba County NC. Where'd she go? I've asked before and now hoping a newcomer might know SOMETHING. Charles Lail Catawba County NC

You might check the Lafon Cemetery in Johnson Co. http://users.htcomp.net/JCGS/Lafon.htm I looked for these names, but you might recognize something I wouldn't recognize. donna ----- Original Message ----- From: <CRLail41@aol.com> To: <TXBOSQUE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, May 18, 2002 3:55 PM Subject: [TXBOSQUE] Mahala Lafone Still looking for info on Mahala Lafone, g'daughter of Isaac Lafone and neice of William, all from NC.

I found this on the Internet and hope the author is subscribed to this list. I couldn't find any reference to an author on the web page so this is a long show. There is a pedigree of Alexander H Webster b: 25 February 1848 m: 1865 d: 24 July 1905 in Walnut Springs, Bosque County, TX showing a son John M Webster b: 1876 in Texas d: 1945 in Walnut Springs, Bosque County, TX . I have a John M Webster born Feb. 17, 1857 in AR. and wonder if this is a name sake. Any help in locating this author appreciated. donna
