My name is Wes Wells and I am Vern Vandever’s great-grandson.  I’m 27 years old and I’m in investment banking in Washington, DC.  I recently had my great-grandfather’s custom watch restored and it has since encouraged me to reach out to learn a little more about my family’s past.  I was close with my grandmother (Elizabeth Vandever Wells) who died when I was a freshman in college.  I have a number of relics from Vern, including his custom watch (hand made in New York circa 1920), Vandever Dry Goods stock certificates, Vandever’s department store tokens, etc. I was hoping that someone in Tulsa could shed a little light on the Vandever family for me since my grandmother and my father (Bruce Vandever Wells) are the only connections to the name that I know of.

Searching for dates of birth and death of Charles O. Frye (born September 1859 in New York) and wife, Vandella M. A. Burke Frye (born June 1860 in Alabama). I do not know if there is a series of cemetery books for Tulsa County, Oklahoma or not? 
Charle O. Frye and Vandella M. A. Burke were married on 15 May 1878 in Sebastian County, Arkansas, and settled in Joplin, Jasper County, Missouri before finally settling in Tulsa County, Oklahoma. Vandella M. A. Burke Frye was a daughter of Elihue Preston Perry Burke (6 April 1836-29 September 1896) and his wife, Miriam/Myriam J. Penninger Burke (born ca. 1841). Records indicate that Charles O. Frye died in Tulsa, Oklahoma during the 1920's. I think that he and his family were buried in Tulsa County, Oklahoma. The children of Charles O. and Vandella M. A. Burke Frye were: Oscar B. Frye (born ca. 1883 in Missouri); Howard Frye (born ca. 1886 in Missouri); and Roy Frye (born ca. 1888 in Missouri).
Reply: 3-2-2009
I did check the funeral home book index and it does not show any listings for Charles O. or for la, although they probably did die in Oklahoma.  Look them up on the census records and they will show the approximate birth date and state where they were born.  Only obit I was able to find on this family is for Roy, who died in November of 1930. keith345@hotmail.com

I am looking for a man, E. L. Potts that married Mae Gish in Arkansas in 1925.  I do not know what the initials are.  The marriage certificate age would give his birth year about 1184 or 1885.

On the marriage certificate he indicates he is from Bixby, Tulsa, OK but got married in Arkansas
Posted on 29Jan2009
He appears to be the Edward Lewis Potts that registered for WW1 in Muskogee county, Okla. Based on that, he is found in 1900 Newton county, Ar. Prairie Twp. with parents, Marion and Nancy. He's indexed as Edwan Potts but shows birth as Feb. 1885 as his WW1 registration card.  1880 his parents and older siblings are also found in  Prairie Twp, Newton county. Father listed as Francis.
Also found there in 1870. His parents burials are listed on Find A Grave in Bald Knob cemetery in Boone county and brother
Lester M. in Western Grove cemetery in Newton county.

I have an old picture of a group of employees at car dealership somewhere in OK but I am having a difficult time trying to find out where.?The photo is priceless, four feet long with at least 40 people from mechanics to secretaries. On the front window is “Ryan Motors” Main St. This picture was probably taken in the 20’s or 30’s. I have not been able to pull anything up on the web. My Dad’s Uncle sold cars here and he thought it was in McAlester but on a sign in the picture was “Alva Rooms”  I contacted someone from Alva who said the picture was not taken there.  The photographer was from Tulsa. Signed on the left side of the photo.  Could you help me out here. Thanks,

William E. Smith, last residence Tulsa, date of death 20 April 1988 

Would like to find out enough information about the deceased to
determine whether he is William Earnest Smith, son of William and Amelia, brother of Celina (Sally), Francis (Frank), Alvina (Vinie), James, and others.  I do know the birth date matches, but another William E. with that birth date died in CA in 2003 (trying to find that obit also).

Surname:  NEW
Submitted by:  Millard New on 16Sep2008

I've been trying to locate a daughter of a great-uncle. Her name was Phyllis New and she was born about 1925, probably in or near Oklahoma City. Her mother and father, William Harrison New and Ruth Bess Munson-New, both died in and are buried in Denver, CO (1965 & 1976, respectively). The cemetery record for mother Ruth states that her next of kin is Phyllis New and she, too, lived in Denver in 1976. However, there is no cemetery record that Phyllis is buried in this cemetery nor does she show up in an on-line telephone search. I assume from the cemetery record that daughter Ruth never married. Subsequently, I found a Social Security Death Index for a Phyllis R New who was born on 14 Sep 1924 and died 5 Jul 1996 with last residence given as Tulsa. I'm thinking that this might be the Phyllis for whom I've been searching. If possible, could someone search the obits near 5 Jul 1996 for her obit? I'd very much appreciate it.

David P. Anderson family

I am looking for David Presley Anderson's family. David was born 26 Dec 1844 in Quincy, Adams Co., Illinois. He married Sarah Matilda Higgins who was born 19 May 1863 in Tennessee. They were married sometime between 1879 & 1880 as I have found them in Ursa, Adams Co., Illinois. Their first child was born in Illinois and the other four in Oklahoma. They live in Guthrie for sometime and moved to Tulsa in the 1920's. They are both buried in Tulsa in Rose Hill Cemetery and they both died in 1936. They also have two sons that are buried with them. Clarence Ray Anderson and Jess Fred Anderson. Clarence married Bertha Baumer and according to 1930 census had two daughters. They may have had more I do not know. I am looking for anyone that is connected to this family.
