Bio and Links
I have been working on my family's genealogy for about 7 years. The more information I find, the more I want to find.

I grew up on a farm around Chandler, Lincoln Co., Oklahoma. My mother's folks were from Cogar, Ok. and my father's folks were from the Piedmont, Ok. area. My grandparents families on both sides were from Georgia and North Carolina.

I only learned of FAG two weeks ago. I want to add my information to help other people find their family members.

I really enjoy NASCAR. The drivers that I like in this era is Carl Edwards, Jimmie Johnson, #12, Matt Kenseth, etc. I've been enjoying NASCAR since about 1967.

McCorkle Cem.
Hi again, Joyce

I see you have left some flowers for the little Rice children at McCorkle Cemetery. I'm entering some data for them and would be glad to learn more. My dad's first cousin Ray Stidham is closely related to the Rice family, and he visited the cemetery about ten years ago, identifying the twins. Do you know any more about this family?

Rays son Eugene and I visited the cemetery this past week. It's in a terrible state of neglect. We're going to try to get the City of Chandler to go in and clean it up.

I hope we will also be able to get cooperation from the Find A Grave site manager, "Okie Kid," whoever that is. Looks like she has simply pasted in the DAR assessment from the 1960s.

Best regards,

Wayne

Hello Joyce!

I noticed that you have left flowers on many of my family member's memorials and wondered how you might be related.

Looking forward to hearing from you, potential relative.

Regards,

Jerry Fair

Thank you for the heads up on the wrong photo! Also have changed the cemetery location to Calliham, McMullen CO. Texas where they are actually buried.

James had several lots in the Three Rivers Cemetery. Sometime graves are unmarked! Was going by cemetery index when added to findagrave.
Thanks again.

Merl Smith
Hi Joyce

I'm from Chandler too. I have lots of folks buried in the Chandler Oak Park Cem. and around Pleasant Ridge. I'd like to know who Merl Smith's folks were. Do you know?

Thanks--

Bellah graves
Thank you for leaving flowers for the Bellahs'! They are my great-great grandparents! I'm actually looking for their daughter Amy. She was my grandfathers birth mother...she ran off. I would love to learn more about her. My grandfather and his sister remained in the family...going to sister and brother of P.L. (Tressie aka/ Theresa Estella DaJournet and Jess Monroe).
