this is where we show that she died around 1948. I

know the details but I am trying to locate a Marriage record for her and

Evelyn was born in Fairfax, Osage Co. according
to the 1920 census she was 1 yr and 9 months then.

Surnames: MYERS Family
Submitted by:
John Whitinger
on
6Jul2009
My great-grandfather, was Abraham Harvey Myers. He was from Pennsylvania,
but moved with this 1st wife (Ellen Jane Wiles) before 1914 to Bartlesville,
Oklahoma. The had two children. Floyd Myers and Nellie Myers. Nellie
married in 1912 in Ohio and Floyd was listed as living in Bushiehead,
Oklahoma in Ellen Jane Wiles Myers obituary in 1914. After Ellen died,
Abraham married a lady named Charlotte.
On October 31, 1925, Abraham Myers while driving a Ford car, was struck by a
streetcar. He died a week later on November 8, 1925 in his son's home in
Oklahoma City. Charlotte sued the Oklahoma Railway Company.
A witness to the will of Abraham Harvey Myers was a W. J. Myers of Avant,
Oklahoma. in April 1920.
What I would like to know is if W. J. Myers was related to Abraham Myers and
if so, how?
I note that the town of Avant is in Osage County, in a Native American
Reservation. In theory, I believe it possible that Charlotte Myers was a
Native American. In December 1928, Charlotte sold property (in the Belle
Isle Addition in Oklahoma City while she was living in Los Angeles,
California) that belonged to my father and my aunt - but they were minors
and lost their property rights.
Any information you can assist me with would be greatly appreciated.

I am searching for funeral records or death records

Whitecotton and Delois Edward Whitecotton. Her Aunt
states that he was buried in Fairfax. I called
information for the Fairfax Cemetery but I did not
get any help from there. She was around his age so
that is all she can remeber. My great-grandparents (Whitecottons)
lived with my Great-Great-Grandparents Flora (Jones)
Cox and (John) Franklin Cox at the time. My four
Great-Grandparents are barried in Osage Gardens but
nothing listed there about Billy. He was born and

Surnames:
Hayes or Hays, VEST
Submitted by Amy Crooks <amyrebba@adelphia.net>
on 23Mar2009
I am
looking for information on the family of James HAYES and
Mary Jane VEST HAYES.
Mary Jane was married twice before. Both husbands died
possibly in MO. They were John Charles Clayton and a Mr.
Knott. One child was born to John and Aria in 1885. John
was killed in 1886. Then sometime before 1892 Mary
remarried to a Mr. Knott and they had three children,
Annie and Nannie both born around 1892 and Charlie about
1897 in OK. Then Mr. Knott was killed. I’m not sure if
he died in MO or OK though. By 1904 Mary married James
Martin Hayes and they had three more children, Pearl
born 1904, Martin born 1907 and Opal born 1906 all in
OK. I found the family in the 1910 census living in
Black Dog, Osage, OK. The last name was spelled as Hays,
not Hayes. Mary also goes by the name of Mollie. Then I
find them again in 1920 in Hominy, Osage, OK. I have
found Mary’s marriage to John Clayton in MO, but still
have not been able to find her marriage to Mr. Knott and
still don’t know anything more about him other than the
surname. Nor have I been able to find her marriage to
James Martin Hayes. Their son General Martin Hayes is my
great grandfather, so the family group of James and Mary
is the most important part to me. What I’d like to find
is the marriage record of James Martin Hayes and Mary
Jane. Most likely around 1903, but could have been as
early as 1897 in OK. I’d also like to find where Mary
and several of the girls are said to be buried in Osage
County, OK, most likely in Hominy. James Martin Hayes
and son Martin Hayes died and are buried out in CA. I
believe it likely that Mary died in the 1960’s. I know
she was near 100 years old at time of death.

I am looking for any information on the Osage County Poor
Farm of 1930 era. My husband's family on both sides lived
in Osage County, near Fairfax. His gggrandma lived at the
Poor Farm, which I understand was an actual working farm.
She was 67 on the 1930 census, so I don't think she was able
to get to the fields a lot... Her name was Julia M. Jones
Hogard. Not sure what the M stood for and her name was
often spelled July.... I was told she was Cherokee, but all
the documents I find show her as White. I was also told she
was buried at Gray Horse Cemetery, but no one has found this
record.
Her son, Benjamin Harrison Hogard also lived at Fairfax with
his family of 11 kids, but i cant find him, either.
Also, looking for and Andrew Jackson "Jack" Casey and his
family who reportedly lived in the area as well as being
buried there, too. I cant seem to find any information on
the Casey's at all.
Can you direct me to someone or a source who can help me? I

Subject:Turner family 1910 Census Strike Axe Twp.
Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2009 08:31:10 -0800 (PST)
The William Turner family was enumerated in the
Strike Axe Twp. on the 1910 census. I am hoping that there are other
researchers who monitor this list that can help me narrow down where in the
township they might have lived.
In 1969 there was an interview done with my great grandmother and she
mentioned the Jefferson family and the Johnson family as neighbors. She also
mentioned that they traded in the town of Elgin. I know that Elgin is in
Kansas just on the boarder with Oklahoma. William Turner is buried in the
Elgin Cemetery.
From a few maps that were emailed to me by another kind researcher Strike
Axe Twp. didn't reach all the way to the boarder with Kansas. The other
thing that was mentioned on the taped interview was that they lived by the
river and from the comments made it sounded like it was prone to flooding.
Last July I traveled to Elgin and then drove down to Pawhuska. We arrived
too late in the day to spend much time at the museum or the library. I did
look at some newspaper microfilm at the library trying to find a possible
mention of my grandmother's birth in January of 1910, or the death of my
great grandfather William Turner 3 July 1915, but no luck.
Any suggestions or comments would be most appreciated. Thank you, Deb
in Oregon
