Stephen, I've checked both the Marriage License Index and the Cemetery Records book for Red River County and did not find any of the names you were looking for. The only RAGAN surnames close to that time period were in the Marriage License index. Just in case there may be a relationship here is the information. RAGAN, Warner wed Robbie FREEMAN on 20 Dec 1903, Book K, page 638 RAGAN, May wed J W JOLLEY on 29 Oct 1903, Book K, page 588 The RAGAN surname does not appear again in the marriage index until the 1970s. There were no RAGAN surnames listed in the cemetery book.

Thank you very much.
