I am a high school science teacher, who enjoys genealogy and researching my home town's history in my limited spare-time. My Great-Aunt often told me many stories of her pioneering days growing up in Faye, Missouri and in Dustin, Ok. Even when the stories were of harsh times, she could always make me sit on the edge of my seat, curious as to what was coming next. As I grew older, married, and had children of my own, I began to long for more stories like the one's I grew up on. When she passed away in 1995 at the age of 97 years, she left behind an 'old' trunk full of family memorabilia, that laid the foundation for my reaserch. No wonder, she knew so much family history, she had been collecting it most of her long-life of 97 years. My research has made me value my family ties much more deeply and cherish the legacy that was laid down long before I came along. This is why I enjoy helping others look for their loved ones, so that they also can appreciate their past, which may have been very harsh, but where LOVE abundantly overflowed. A virtue, which as a teacher, I see rapidly fading away in today's homes. Good Luck finding your past!If I manage your loved one's memorial, I will be glad to transfer that account to you. Also, you have my permission to use the photos that I have provided.Researching/Seeking Family Surnames/Connections: COPE.........TN,Ozark Co., MO & Hughes Co., OKFOSTER......Dardanell/Yell Co.,AR & Hughes Co.,OKSWAFFORD.....Ozark Co.,MO & Hughes Co.,OKCANNON.......AR & Hughes Co.,OKGRAHAM.......McIntosh Co.,OKCREEKBAUM....McIntosh Co.,OKHILL.........AR & Kern Co., CABLAIR........AR & McIntosh Co./Hughes Co., OKMEEK.........OKTALON........OK
