   february 25, 2002
   John Huff w/wife Judith or Julia moved into Elk City, Ok in the
   1890s or early 1900s.  John died there c1916 & I assume his wife
   died there too.  They also had children marry there.  When I try
   to bring up the Huff name in Beckham Co. it says there are no
   Huffs.  What other source could I check to look further?  Thank
   you.  bettylu@velocitus.net

   I am looking for info on Emma Catherine and Phylander W Peel.
   They were my great grandparents.  Emma ran a boarding house in
   Erick in the early 1900's.  She also had a little girl (under 6
   years of age, I think she was 3) that died and is buried around
   there somewhere.  Emma and Phylander had a daughter (Sibyl) and
   two sons (Henry and Alec).   jonrl@starband.net

          Ella Nelson  Minnie Hill  8:44 am friday december 7, 2001
                                    Hi,
       I am looking for information on Ella Nelson, who lived in Elk
        City at least during 1950's, and may be earlier.  During the
      1950's, she was honored as being one of the oldest residents of
      Elk City.  Her picture was published in the Elk City newspaper.
          From the picture, I would say that she was in her 80's.
       She is my great aunt on my father's side. My father's name was
       Martin Oscar Doran.  I have very little information about her.
          Any information about her would be greatly appreciated.

   Marlene, I'm assuming you are talking about Beckham Co.
   newspapers. I'm looking for information on a Laura Ann Moore
   Sewell, wife of I.Q. (Quimby) Sewell who died in 1915 or 1916 (or
   so I'm told) and is buried in Texola Cemetery. If you have an obit
   for her, I'd appreciate it. I live in Ft. Worth, TX, and if I can
   look for any info for you here in return, I'll certainly do it!
   Thanks!
