Theodore & Nellie RITCHIE came from Ohio to Okla. and on to Tx. for work. They died in Tx.
but were buried in Yale, Ok. Had I believe 9 children and I feel like their descendents are in
Texas, Oklahoma or both. Theodore went by Win or Winifred, he was my mothers Uncle and she
does not ever remember mention of him or his family. We are not settled in Ohio either like the
other Ritchie's and would love to hear from anyone who may be related. Have record of one of his
sons Lawrence Lloyd who died in 1976 and buried in Yale, Ok. A Kenneth William married to a
Rosalind B. RUSSELL, his birthdate was 1921 Yale, Ok. Hope to hear from some cousins!!

I'm trying to determine where my g-g grandfather, George Washington LUMBLEY, was buried.
The last census record that I have located with is name was the 1870 census for Caldwell County.
That census shows him as Washington Lumbley. At that time, he would have been 75 years old.
I would sure appreciate any information on my g-g grandfather. Thanks, Dave

WOLFE, John or JORANSY from Rutherford County, NC. Born about 1826-27 to Jacob Wolfe
and Nancy McEntire Thompson in NC or May be in Texas. I'm not sure how he wound up in
Texas. His father had at least one Cherokee parent. I found a John Wolfe in Fuqua Cemetery in
Caldwell County that matches DOB. If anyone has any info on him please let me know. All I
have is a picture of John with his brother Wm Cathey Wolfe and probably his 3 daughters
standing behind them taken in NC on a visit back East. He was very old at the time.
Thanks, Melanie Malone

Lydia (Mrs. J.E.) Clardy, formerly Blanks, was living in Lockhart, Caldwell Co. Texas in 1902
when her sister, Elizabeth F. (Blanks) Harris died in MO. Am hoping that other members of the
Blanks family may have moved to this area of Texas in the late 1800's. Would appreciate hearing
from any of this Blanks line born in Missouri who later moved to Texas, especially Willis P.
Blanks, a brother to Elizabeth and Lydis.

I am researching Daniel FULLER who was in Caldwell County on 1850 census and is possibly
buried in Wells Cemetery. I am following the family through Daniel's son, E M. Believe that E M
stands for Ezekiel Matthew or Madison. Research is proving that Daniel is probably a brother to
Benjamin and Ezekiel Madison who were in the Caldwell County area. E M married Eliza
DANIEL(S) 24 Oct 1869 in Caldwell. By 1880 E M and Eliza were in Erath County. Around
1883 or so E M and Eliza moved to Oklahoma. They can be placed in Hughes County, OK, near
Calvin where a son, Grover, was born in 1892. Would like to correspond with anyone with
information about this family and would be happy to share information. Kaye Vernon, 1110
