I am interested in knowing more about your father and uncle Raymond. We know nothing about our grandfather and if this is indeed my grandfather maybe your father can let us know a little about him. I know that Donnie and Lonnie and all the other childrend are deceased. Please let me know more information. You can even call me at (661) 872-5850. Sincerely, Alesha
P.S. I am not sure of the spelling of his last name.

Re: Looking for my Great-grandfather

I talked to my father and we did have a Uncle Raymond who lived in McWilliams, Alabama and had two sons named Donnie and Lonnie. He had some children who moved to Bay Minette, Alabama. McWilliams is in Wilcox County and Bay Minette is in Baldwin County. I hope this is of some help.

Re: looking 4 pics of old moyers

KarenMillert505pggtll6ng9tfjp4fcv5ofq9n — 2009-05-23 21:56:28Z

Katy, I don't have a picture of the Moyers train depot, but I can tell you a story about it. It is a little startling, so keep in mind that it was nearly a hundred years ago. My grandmother, who was born in 1907,told me that when she was a child, the train came through Moyers. If a Black person got off of the train, Mr. Robinson, the station master, would lock them in a room in the train station overnight. When the train came through the next day, they could get back on. She said, matter of factly, "They didn't mistreat 'em or anything, they give 'em a blanket and a towel and a basin to wash in, and they brung 'em food from the restaurant across the street." Her brothers would sneak out and stand on a wooden box to peer into the window at the Black passengers, but once when she tried it her mother caught her and whipped her for it. So your train station-house is part of one of the sadder chapters of our American story. If you do find a picture, please post it on the Pushmata County Genweb page, for all of us to see.

These children are listed with parents C H and Nancy. Looking for descendants to help identify gentlemen in photo taken in Clayton, OK in front of the General Store. My g-grandfather James Franklin Strawn is in photo. Back says simply Mr. Waits and Mr. Meadows with Grandpa.
A quick search leads me to believe C H Waits is buried in Clayton Old Town Cemetery with birth/death as follows: 07 Mar 1873-29 Oct 1941.

Re: looking for Blankenship family in Choctaw Nation, I.T. 1880's-1890's

gnphllps — 2009-02-06 23:50:26Z

And Hudson's parents are John Blankenship and Elizabeth Hudson. John's parents are Ralph Blankenship and Martha?
I'm descended from Hudson's younger brother Isham. Isham was married to Edith's sister Sarah. Their parents were John Wilkinson and Jane. I have all this information online if you would like to look at it. 14 generations of about 38 Blankenship families.

Re: looking for Blankenship family in Choctaw Nation, I.T. 1880's-1890's

spburson — 2009-02-06 15:07:37Z

To begin with I might need to tell you that I am from a double line of Blankenship. This began with my 4th Great Grandparents John Buck Blankenship and Millie Thompson (1800-1870).

My Great Grandfather William Joseph Blankenship(3 Feb 1847- 27 Aug 1929)m: Martha Jane Coleman

My 2nd GG James Thomas Blankenship(1828-1893)m: Martha Ann Epperson

3rd GG John Buck Blankenship (1793-8Oct 1857)m: Millie Thompson

4th GG Reuben Blankenship (1765-1850): I have his papers from when he was in the American Revolution, thus anyone able to prove their linage to him can become a member of the DAR Daughters of the American Revolution. m: Elizabeth Wilkinson

Reuben's parents were: Hudson Blankenship(1729-1814) and Edith Wilkinson(1733-1826)(and yes his mother's maiden name is the same as his wife's maiden name. I have not gotten to their lineage yet to know how and if they are related)

On my other line of Blankenships: My 3rd GG mother Anna Elizabeth Blankenship (18 Dec 1817-27 June 1893, and thus her parents were also John Buck Blankenship and Millie Thompson.

My grandmother Eva Lena Blackmon Snell is the daughter to William Joseph and Martha Jane

Re: looking for Blankenship family in Choctaw Nation, I.T. 1880's-1890's

gnphllps — 2009-02-06 03:09:17Z

I don't have Reuben in my information, but the William Blankenship mentioned is my 1st cousin 4 times removed. In other words, his father Lewis Blankenship is a brother to my ggg-gf Gilbert Blankenship. That is if we're talking about the same William. I only have one child listed for William which is Lee.

Do you have parents Reuben?

Re: looking for Blankenship family in Choctaw Nation, I.T. 1880's-1890's

spburson — 2009-02-05 18:29:01Z

I am in the direct line of Reuben Blankenship. I have 2 third cousins that have already proved their lineage. Have you had in success proving yours?

Henry Weaver, Jr.

dlgarrison1 — 2009-01-29 15:32:49Z

Elaine:

I remember an H. D. Weaver, Jr., who was County Supt. in Pushmataha County back in the 60's and early 70's. I was a teacher and later principal at Nashoba and worked with H. D. in connection with the school. My memories of H. D. were all positive and I had a good working relationship with him while I was there. Nashoba lost their high school in 1968 and became an elementary school the year after. H. D. helped make that difficult transition for the community an easier one for all concerned and I haven't forgotten his easy going ways in helping us. I left that area in 1976 and didn't have contact with him after that time and have since retired from teaching. I believe that I read in the Antlers American newspaper that he had passed away, but am not sure about that. Hope that this will help you in some way.

Father is missing in Pushmataha County

2008-12-12 04:16:37Z

Can anyone on this board do a look up for me? I am trying to find the father of William Lee Templeton. William Lee is b.13 Oct 1868. I believe, whoever his father is,he is buried around Rattan. I know that William Lee is also buried there as is his wife Jesse Crane Templeton. I have been told that William Lee's father is from Tennesse but a daughter recently told me she thinks her dad was from Georgia. I am not even sure of this man's first name. I thought it was another William but have recently been told his name might be Samuel. I will apprecite any help anyone can give me on this elusive man. Blessings Gayla Meade Templeton

Re: Stackhouse and Connor

Sonja_Hoffman — 2008-11-18 19:34:03Z

I have found a Jamalh Stackhouse in the 1910 census of Oklahoma in Pushmataha County, with him were 3 children, Otis, Hulda, and Jesse. Jamalh is the father listed a wd. I aasume that means he was a widower or was he divorced? I have the descendants of the first 2 children and know the third one died young.By the 1920 census Hulda, who was 4 in 1910, had married and was living in Atoka County, Oklahoma with her husband, Charley H. Henderson. She was 14 and he was 29. That is the line with which I am working. None of the descendants of Otis or Hulda know anything of the earlier ancestors. They think that the Rosa Stackhouse who maried in 1911 in Antlers is the mother of Otis, Hulda and Jesse. If this is true who was she before her first marriage to Stackhouse and where did she and her 2nd husband, a Connors, disappear to after 1911. I can not find them in 1920.

Re: Adolphus Williams minister in Antlers

Mary, Is Adolphus a common name in your family? The reason I am asking is that my father-in-law, who was born in Pushmataha county, is named Dolphus. His oldest son has that name too and it is so uncommon, I wondered if we might be related, based on the given name. Our surname is Templeton. They lived at Rattan before moving to OKC many years ago but about ten children were born there. I look forward to hearing your comments on this. Blessings Gayla Meade Templeton
