Willie Lee Carr

CarolynEnder — 2009-06-23 04:44:36Z

I am searching for information on Willie Lee Carr who is buried in Blanchard Cemetery in McClain County. He was born April 18, 1890 and died August 20, 1942. He married Ruth Cox and they had at least 3 children: Grace, Juanita, and Eugene. I am interested in locating an obituary for him and or his wife; however, I do not know when she died. I would especially like to find out who his parents were.

Re: Goldie Potter

ChiefsWife83 — 2009-06-05 04:06:50Z

Hello,

I made an attempt to locate additional info on your aunt Goldie, but have hit some snags; as I see have you. Did she have a name other than Goldie? One of my husbands aunts; as example; nickname was Goldie, but her given name was Golda, another family members name was Geraldine, but she too went by Goldie.

I did locate the "Rite-A-Way Cafe"; now known as the "RITE-WAY CAFE" in Blanchard. I called but they had closed for the evening. Their phone number is (405) 485-2287, their address is HI-76, Blanchard, OK 73010.

Many such cafe's may have changed owners, but they are an intregill part of country life, even if they now are in the middle of downtown. If you contact the owners or manager, they may well have photos of the cafe in the 60's and perhaps your aunt as well. I'll check OK business info and get back with you as to who owns it today.

Goldie Potter

LarryLarsen71 — 2009-06-04 19:18:22Z

Looking for any info or family members related to Goldie Rogers Potter. She was the daughter of Elizabeth & Henry Rogers.Elizabeth later married a Tom Blackburn and lived in Blanchard. Goldie Potter owned a resturant there in Blanchard in the 1960's called Rite A Way Cafe. She had several marriages from what I can tell, she married Underwood Gore, a Morris and William Omar Potter. Any info would mean alot. Also looking for any photos of the Rite A Way cafe. Goldie Potter had a son named Leslie Eugene Gore and I beleive a a daughter named Dorthey Gore.

Re: Zol Woods

ChiefsWife83 — 2009-05-19 16:11:26Z

Your are welcome.

What had me thinking they were father and son or Uncle and nephew, were the dates.

Your Zole Coffee Woods dates are b:1832 and d:28 APR 1884. The Zole J. Woods I found was allowed to practice law in Indian Territory in 24 OCT 1895; implying he was relitively young, possibly just having been admited to the bar.

There weren't any lawyers for the tribes; that I know of; prior to 1890. I'll do some more digging and see what I can find.

Re: Zol Woods

branbec — 2009-05-19 12:09:28Z

Evelynne,

Thank you so much, the Zolecoffee Woods you mentioned is most likely him. We have found many different spellings of his name. I have no idea if he ever had any children and heard from a distant relative that he died in Arkansas. I have searched the cemeteries in that county in AR and can't find a trace of him which could just mean it's unmarked. I appreicate you efforts in helping me and look forward to any future posts. Thanks. Lisa

Re: Zol Woods

ChiefsWife83 — 2009-05-19 05:05:31Z

I saw your query and attempted to locate any info I could. What I found deals with a Zolecoffee Woods, but not the person you mentioned.

In a copy of the newspaper the "Daily Ardmorite" [no longer in circulation] dated 24OCT1895 is a referance to "a" ZOL WOODS:

"ZOL J. WOODS was admitted to practice in the courts in Indian Territory (Oklahoma) today, having passed a most satisfactory examination before the committee appointed for that purpose."

The Daily Ardmorite was published in Ardmore, Pickens (now Carter) County, Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory.

It is highly possible the Zol and Mary Virginia Woods you mentioned were the parents of Zol J. Woods.

I will try and look up the info for the younger Woods and see which tribe he may have represented at the time.

Zol Woods

branbecca — 2009-05-19 01:24:08Z

I am wondering if anyone has any information on a Zolecoffes "Zol" Woods, b 1832, d 28 Apr 1884 supposedly in Quitman, Cleburne Co, AR. He was an attorney who worked with the Cherokee Nation from the legal papers I have found. He was married in McAlister, OK to a Mary Virginia Cowan in 1889. Any information you may have on this person would be greatly appreciated.

I am 50 years old and Blanchard, McClain, OK is my Hometown. I remember Goldie Potter.

My Grandmother Bertha Mae Taylor (1899 - 1984) worked at the Rite Way Cafe for many years. I often went in there in the 60's & 70's. (Brightwell's may have owned it after Goldie did. I have a photo of my Grammie while at work there)

I don't have any further info however I live about 20 miles from Blanchard and could help locate some contacts there.

Apparently Elizabeth & Tom Blackburn are buried in the Blanchard Cemetery.

Here is a bit of data that I located on her family.

Hope it helps

WILLIAMSON, JAMES OLLIE "JOE" - Obit

HGrisso — 2009-04-06 19:24:11Z

From the Medford (OR) Mail Tribune on 04-03-2009 at www.mailtribune.com

Joe Williamson went to be with our Lord on Sunday, March 29, due to complications from surgery. He was born on Sept. 16, 1935, in Blanchard, Okla. as James Ollie Williamson but his friends and family just called him "Joe."

His family relocated to Buckeye, Ariz. in 1940 and then on to Richmond, Calif. in 1944. Joe settled in Madera a few years later where Joe graduated from Madera Union High School. He worked all over the California Central Valley operating heavy equipment.

In 1957, he wed Bonnie Lucille Mahan, who preceded him in passing in 1982. As a young groom, he was drafted into the US Army in 1958, where he served on the Island of Formosa for 2 years. Returning home, he worked in construction with Ray Mahan, his father-in-law. Joe relocated to Murphy, Ore. in 1962 where he was employed at Murphy Creek Saw Mill.

Joe wed Sherrill Weaver in 1985, and founded H & H Ranch, which they ran together. Joe's hobbies included gardening, farming and reading. A big part of his life revolved around being an elder at the Wonder Bible Chapel. He also enjoyed involvement in the Neighborhood Watch program and CERT.

Joe is survived by his wife, Sherrill Lynn Williamson; brothers, J.D. Williamson, of Arkansas, and Jim Williamson of Jacksonville, Ore; mother-in-law, Hazel Mahan; brother-in-law, Buddy Mahan; sister-in-law, Nancy Gilliland; children, Danny Williamson, Cindy Valencia and Kim Todd; stepchildren, Sherry Rasco, Mike Hinson, and Debbie Hinson; 19 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.

Please join us for a celebration of his life at the Wonder Bible Chapel, Sunday April 5th at 2 p.m. The family respectfully requests donations be made to Wonder Bible Chapel in lieu of flowers at P.O. Box 77, Selma, OR 97538.

Cemetery look-up help

cmycats — 2009-03-25 19:19:43Z

If someone has a cemetery book I would appreciate a look-up.

Buried in Purcell, OK, I have:
Lucinda Cain Wallace d. 1905 Graham OK, bur in Purcell.
James Ransom (Rance) Wallace d. 1909 Same

I would be interested in any other Wallaces in the same cemetery.

Thanks so much,
Pam Cain

cmycats — 2009-03-27 19:41:20Z

Thank you so much.

I have Lucinda's family and parents, but, if there is additional info listed on James Rance Wallace I would like to have the info. I would also like a listing of their children (and spouses) if listed.

I have some info gathered from census records, but, it is hard for me to get a complete picture of this family.

Some of the sons were outlaws, and while I can find some info online, the articles quickly turn to the more famous names leaving me lacking on the Wallaces.

By chance does it mention James Ransom Wallace's parents?

Thanks so much.

Thanks,
