Jay, Look in the 1910 Oklahoma census for your ggrandfather. It will show you his approx age, his state of birth, his wife's age and state of birth, how long they've been married, and their parents' states of birth. If you know where your ggrandfather died, get a death certificate. Same for your ggrandmother. You should be able to work your way back through the censuses pretty easily through 1850.
