Thomas Wiley and his partner Robert Thompson were talking this week about their electric car line, and Mr. Wiley is a very thoughtful man in business, and he said that a large swinging wire bridge across Grand river would be one of the finest things of the car line and he believed it would be much cheaper. I think Mr. Wiley is in his right mind. He is letting the car line out on two thousand dollar shares. We are all booming Mr. Wiley - our village is very proud of him.

Samuel Ray Jackson died 1957 in Vinita - need further info, wife's name perhaps   1112B

Census records posted by Jorgensen, Karen on May 28, 2009 for , JACKSON, HARLOW

I was told that my 2nd cousin
Samuel Ray Jackson (31 May 1889 - 10 Sep 1957) died in Vinita 10 Sep 1957. He is the son of Jacob Thomas Jackson and Udora Harlow, although both born in Kentucky, Udora Harlow Jackson died 13 May 1949 in Tulsa Oklahoma.

Here he is in 1930:
1930 Mayes Coo. Oklahoma Census; Source Citation: Year: 1930; Census Place: River, Mayes, Oklahoma; Roll: 1913; Page: 2B; Enumeration District: 19; Image: 1059.0. Census Images; 35 / 39
Ray Jackson, 40, age 22 at 1st marriage, KyKYKY; -- wife, 34, age 17 at 1st marriage, KyKYKy; Cecil R., son, 9, Tx; J.T. son, 6, Ok.

For some reason the name of the wife is blank.

I cannot find this family in the 1920 census.

Does anyone know his wife's name or have access to an obit?

Thank you.

Obit Request: Commissioner Charles H. Mason, d. 1894 at Vinita.   1114A

Query posted by Stamper, Jesse on June 23, 2009 for , MASON, HUCKEBY

Could someone please look-up the obituary of Charles Holland MASON (1826-1894)? He was born August 9, 1826/7 in New Hampshire; and died in June 1894 at Vinita. In 1890, he was appointed by President Benjamin HARRISON to be a commissioner for the Indian Territory. He had previously lived in Perry County, Indiana. He was a widow at the time of his death; he had no children.

I have hit a brick wall in my maternal ancestry research and MASON'S obituary may offer some clues. MASON was a lawyer and apparently well-to-do. I imagine he left behind a lengthy obit.

I would gladly pay anyone to search for MASON'S obituary. I don't need a photocopy, text will be fine.

Sincerely,
Jesse Stamper
