AIKEN/PETTEY

Edith McCarthy - Meeker, Colorado

I am searching for my husband's g-grandfather Joseph S AIKEN, married to Helen Maye PETTEY. They may have gone to Oklahoma from Kentucky. I have information that he was in Citra, Oklahoma in 1901-1903 - possibly longer - was probably a rancher/farmer. (I cannot find Citra on my map, but the next place listed on the document I have lists Newkirk, OK - so I am assuming both are close together) I do not know where he/they died. Will really appreciate any information you may have - or suggestions where I might look. Thanks for your consideration.

THE ATTERSON/AUTERSON CONNECTION

[This site was unavailable Feb 2004]

My name is Mark Atterson. My Great Grandfather's older brother William J. Auterson made his way out west from Kentucky in the early 1870's. Many of William's descendants still live in and around Ponca City and Kay County. I have a few 'orphan' photographs, several of Native Americans, that somehow belong to our family but unfortunately have been forgotten in time. I would appreciate you linking to my site or possibly giving me information on a local site that could in hopes these folks may be identified. The site is located at the Atterson/Auterson Connection

JOSIAH ALFRED ARMSTRONG

[Email bounced] Feb 2004

My grandfather, Josiah Alfred Armstrong, lived in Ponca City in the late 1920's until December 1931. In December 1931, my grandfather was murdered in Ponca City. He managed a store called C.R. Anthony. My grandmother was Mae Armstrong (Maiden name was Oliver). My mother was Mary Marjorie Armstrong (Married Name was Mary Nice. My grandfather was murdered when my mother was around 18. My mother was born on November 5, 1912.My mother has passed away and unfortunately I only have a few letters from my grandfather to my mother dated late 1931. I do have a newspaper clipping of the murder trial, but it is very faded and hard to read. Any information you have or could get regarding how I could get more information on my grandfather's murder, where he is buried (I believe he is buried in Ponca City), his relatives, anything, would be greatly appreciated.
