Lost and Found
Looking for information about Freda Pearl Forman. She lived on Rt. 1 in Taloga, Oklahoma, in Dewey County. I was given an old quilt top made by Freda and would like to know anything at all about her. Contact Connie Hall at 580-436-4352.
Looking for descendants of the Anthony Jefferson Davault, John T. Strickland, Sophie Adeline Peters and Minnie Lee Gordon families. The Stricklands are from the Ada, Ardmore and Stonewall areas; the Peters are from Missouri and north Texas; the Davaults are from north Texas, Lexington area and southern Oklahoma; and the Gordons are from Mississippi and southern Oklahoma. I am doing ancestry research and am wanting to connect with these families. Contact Dewayne at unclegdr@yahoo.com or at 405-401-8943.
