Archives. I have been sending him my cemetery surveys and headstone photos and he has begun to upload them. The site is located at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/tx/wichita/wichtoc.htm This is going to take us time and will eventually include not only the cemeteries and photos, but will also include other records that have been transcribed such as marriages, divorces and obits from early Wichita Falls newspapers, and the "happenings" section from a couple of years of the paper that many of YOU helped to transcribe.. If you want to look at the cemetery photos that have been uploaded so far be sure to click on the link in the cemetery section that says : Wichita Co. Cemetery Photos Not only will this give you an alphabetical listing of everyone in that cemetery but there will be a link that you can click on to see the headstone photo. This is going to take us quite some time to do, but eventually we hope to have lots of new items on the Wichita Co. site. If you have ANYTHING that you can transcribe such as Wills, Probate items, Deeds, Obits or anything else of interest, please send them to me at neatstuffgifts@aol.com Julie Coley

In the 1920 Census is Mike Riza living with son, Tom Riza, in Wichita Falls on Houston street and Tom worked at the cotton gin. Mike H. Riza was listed as age 67 divorced.

Yes I do have the census for those years. The think is I have found so many census record mistakes especially on where they were born.. Bert did not get his B-Certificate until about 1941-42 when he went to work for the government. WW11 era. He took his father with him down to get everything.. So, there is also confusion on the fathers correct middle name The birth certificate list Samuel Lurs Strange.. Some say it was Louis or Lewis...( Lewis is a family name) Others say it is Lurers ... So, what I was hoping, was to establish the yr. they went to Texas... Maybe by tax records or voting records if any one has excess to them...? if you have any ideals on how to do this by all means let me know.. Samuel susposedly hired three boxcars and moved Family, household, everything from Marshall County, Al... What kind of railroad was there in Foard or Witchita County in 1905-1910 ? Was there this kind of access ?? Again thanks so much... E.J. Phx., Az. B29wendover@wmconnect.com
