It's interesting that you are just up the road from us here in Farmington [more]... ~ regarding Okie's story from Vol. 10 Iss. 30 titled UNTITLED Upcoming Events
|
Millennium Edition
Vol 3, Iss 1 Slapout, Oklahoma - Here it is a week into the New 21st Century! Thanks
for all the memories you have sent in the past Volumes of "Oakie's HTH."
I am working on some Slapout, Oklahoma 2001 photos I took this week
and hope to have them ready for you next week. Send me some history
and memories of Slapout... If you get a chance.
We ate our good luck black-eyed peas in Buck's Hoppin
John Recipe on New Years Eve for good luck to follow us into the New
Millennium. I have stuck the recipe link below just incase someone wants
to check it out.BucksHoppinJohn.doc
New Years Day found this Oakie on the road again back
to Oklahoma, January 1, 2001. As to New Years traditions & black-eyed
peas... Scott says, "My family always ate black-eyed peas on New Year's
Day. Why? I haven't a clue."
< br /> My family also ate black-eyed peas on New Years for
good luck. I don't know why or when the black-eyed peas tradition started.
Does anyone out there have any clues to this mystery?
Some of you NW Oklahomans and Paris family relations
out there might remember my Uncle Alvin. On our way back through
Colorado to Oklahoma, we stopped and visited with my mother's older
brother, Alvin Paris. Alvin worked with the McClure Loans & Insurance
Company, in Alva back in the 1930s. Alvin & Naomi married in 1935 and
lived in the Monfort Apartments before moving to 718 4th Street. I'm
not quite sure where the Monfort apartments were located, but Alvin
and Naomi moved from those apartments to the 718 4th Street home sometime
shortly after the Castle on the Hill burned down. Does anyone have any
clues to where the Monfort Apartments were located? Alvin and Naomi
also lived in the two-story, framed, white house on the southeast corner
of Choctaw & Third Street, across the street south from the Old Armory.
Alvin Paris was born 1 Nov. 1912; married Naomi Warren (b. 1910),
3 February 1935. They will be celebrating their 66th anniversary, Feb.
3, 2001. Alvin is the next to the oldest of nine siblings of Ernest
Claude Paris and Mary Barbara Hurt. Of the nine siblings (Leslie,
Alvin, Vernon, Vada, Zella, Kenneth, Sam, Geneva
and EJ)... the three remaining are Alvin (88, in Colorado Springs,
CO), Sam (76, in Sand Pointe, ID) and Geneva (72, in Chester,
OK).

Everyone knows about Pikes Peak and Colorado Springs,
but what about the Cave
of the Winds. These caverns are located near the small community
of Manitou west of Colorado Springs, Colorado. You use a steep, winding,
corkscrew mountain road to reach the entrance of the Cave of the Winds.
The caverns have been around for over one hundred years.
They were temporarily lighted with electric lights 11
October 1904. On 4 July 1907 a new electric light system with arc lights
were installed in the larger rooms of the cave for the first time. The
entrance building was built in the spring of 1906 with a veranda for
views of Williams Canyon and Manitou.
caveofthewinds.com/cave2000/timeset.htm
We stopped to take the tour so I could walk in the footsteps
of my grandmother Constance Warwick who took the same tour in the early
1900s (1907-1909) before she married my grandfather, Bill McGill.
I found this great old photo of the "Cave of the Winds" taken
sometime during the early 1900s. There were NO names or dates written
on the photo. The only clues to the dated items in photo are the long
skirt and white blouse worn by the lady; the two horse drawn carriages
in the sloping foreground; and the sign on the front of the building
over the steps that reads, "Brilliantly Electrically Lighted."

Nearby is a free public park called "Garden
of the Gods." It has towering sandstone rock formations against
a backdrop of snow-capped Pikes Peak and blue skies. In 1909, Charles
Elliott Perkins' children conveyed his 480 acres to the City of Colorado
Springs. It was/is known as the 'Garden of the Gods' and free
to the public and maintained as a public park.
gardenofgods.com/history.htm
< br /> I did get a few shots of the 'Garden of the Gods'
when we traveled through there January, 2001. If you look really hard,
you might spot this Oakie leaning on a rock wall with the sandstone
formations in the background at one of the overlooks.

For the week of January 1 thru January 5... from SW
Colorado to Oklahoma, the gas pump prices ranged from $1.55 (Durango,
CO) all the way down to $1.19 at a Texaco, in central Oklahoma.
The first of the week in Colorado Springs gas prices were $1.39. Boise
City, out on the very tip of the Oklahoma panhandle, saw a $1.39 gas
as did Guymon, OK. The gas prices in Alva during the mid-week came in
at $1.35. Ames, OK which is southeast of Ringwood and norhtwest of Hennessey,
Kingfisher and Okarche all sported a $1.34 price tag. A Texaco gas station
in NW Oklahoma City showed a price of gas on Friday, January 5, 2001,
at $1.19. What are the gas pump prices doing in your neck of the woods?
< br />Next week I will try to get the pictures of Slapout,
Oklahoma ready for you to see what it looks like today. If anyone out
there has any old photos, history or memories of Slapout to share, just
attach them to an email and send along to Linda at oakiebelle@home.com.

Thanksgiving Weekend & End of November 2008
Vol 10, Iss 48 
Did you get your fill of turkey & dressing, mashed potatoes, noodles, and all the holiday comfort foods this last Thursday? We did!
Morning after Snow of Thanskgiving 2008. Here is hoping you had a great Thanksgiving holiday where ever you found yourself this year! We did!
This NW Okie made three (homemade from scratch) pies: apple, cherry and pecan. I used my grandmother Mary Barbara (Hurt) Paris' flaky pie crust recipe that she passed down to my mother, Vada Paris McGill. It was almost as good -- it was also flaky.
The cherry pie still had a tart, but sweet flavor, as well as the apple pie. The pecan pie was filled with pecans and bubbled over during the cooking. Good thing I put it on an aluminum foiled cookie sheet when cooking, huh?
The best part of Thanksgiving besides being with family was the huge, wet snow flakes that began to fall just before noon on Thanksgiving day, November 27, 2008. I uploaded a movie clip of that Thanksgiving snow on my OkieLegacy - YouTube site for your viewing special viewing. You can also see the family dogs Roughing It With the Pugs while you are browsing my YouTube site.
Today... the snow is melting in the sunny condition of SW Colorado while SE Colorado and NE New Mexico have been getting more snows around Raton, NM and I25. Will it head for the No Man Lands of the Oklahoma Panhandle?
Four more weeks of 2008!

Giving Thanks & Genealogy Info
Vol 10, Iss 47 As a dry, cold front settled through Southwest Colorado by mid-week we encountered gas prices falling below the $2 mark in Durango, Colorado.
Also... Nugget, Quoti and Maggie were caught on film this week with friends at Clark's West Ranch in Northwest Oklahoma.
Meanwhile, NW Okie has been busy updating and moving her genealogy database to a new site. We deleted our Gencircles.com genealogy database.
NOW... Our Paris-Conover-Hurt (Geneanet.org) can be found at these two links - myheritage.com (Paris Family Site).
When you click the MyHeritage site link you will be able to pick between the "Paris-Conover-Hurt" pages and the McGill-Warwick-Gwin-Hull & Wagner-Williams-Zimmerman .
I also received this week some Louthan family history and information from Tom Fetters in Illinois. I haven't got it all transcribed yet, but I am still working on merging that information into my maternal genealogy data for the Paris/Conover/Hurt family file.
There are two different genealogy sites we are trying out, the MyHeritage site, which allows photos and comments, and the Geneanet.org site which has the traditionally, indented family tree form -- which makes for easier viewing and navigating.
See what you think and let me know which one you like the best. If you have a genealogy site that doesn't cost an arm and a leg to use, we would love to hear from you.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING is just around the corner. Take a few moments and reflect on things around you, and for what you are thankful for this year.

Our Family Genealogy Database...
Vol 7, Iss 16 This Genealogy & Family Tree stuff is like "A Neverending Story" ... There is NEVER a Finishing point. Meanwhile our work on updating our genealogy files to our family database is progressing rapidly on our MCGILL / PARIS / WAGNER Family Tree. We spent the week inputting our PARIS/CONOVER (our mother's side of the family) into the database. We still need to input our HURT family. There are CONOVER / COUWENHOVEN / KOUWENHOVEN / VAN KOUWENHOVEN ancestors that date back to the mid-1500s, in Holland (Netherlands). Our PARIS family tree has over 1500 persons so far. Stay Tuned for Updates in the next few weeks!

Oakie's Ancestors...
Vol 7, Iss 14 A lot of Oakie's ancestors on her father's side of the family were from Old Augusta County, Virginia. The McGILL's stretched down into Tennessee. We are finding out that the HULL/HOHL ancestors came down to Virginia from Lancaster & York (now Adam) Counties, Pennsylvania. The farthest back on the HULL side of the family leads us to a Peter Thomas HOHL/HOLL born in Rhineland Palatinate (Rheinland-Pflaz), Germany. In 1741 (May 30), Peter (age 28, a miller) migrated to the Philadelphia area of America on the ship Francis & Ann, from Rotterdam, Netherlands. Next we find Peter Thomas HULL/HOHL moved to Cub Run, present day Rockingham County, Virginia prior to 1755. Our HULL side of the family married into the WARWICK clan through Esther HULL when she married Robert Craig WARWICK.
The quest for our WARWICK, GWIN/GUINN/GWINN, HULL/HOHL/HOLL has lead us to Old Augusta County, Virginia that we speak of in the next feature story. There was a lot of misinformation about the HULL/HOHL side of the family that got passed down from when our grandmother Constance (Warwick) McGill did her research. If you search through Geo. W. Cleek's book, Early Western Augusta County, you need to becareful what you use. There are some families with misplaced children and no documentations. Another path to take is to read through Lyman Chalkley's compilation of Virginia's court records.
We are hoping that when we get through refreshing, rebuilding, updating our family database, we will have an organized idea of where to continue the research. We haven't even starting putting the PARIS/CONOVER/HURT families into the database. Oakie says, "Let's just work this side of the family first. Otherwise, we will be overwhelmed by all the surnames. Sometimes... when you run onto an unidentified photo, you wish you could go back in time -- ask your grandparents more about the family ancestors. All I have now are old faded notes, newspaper clippings, letters, postcards, unmarked old photos. Trying to put some order, organization into it all for the next generation keeps me preoccupied lately. It is addictive. AND... a never-ending... journey!"
Maybe someday Oakie will pack this Precious Pug into the Pickup and venture back through Old Augusta County for a few weeks, month of digging for family roots.

Our NEW Grand Niece
Vol 7, Iss 13 March 24, 2005 we received news that our NEW grand niece made her appearance known. That's our grand-niece on David's side of the family. Erin Lillian was born 0743 EST, March 24, 2005, in Atlanta, GA, weighing in at 6lb. 14 oz., 21 inches. We hear that Mother and baby Erin are doing well. Welcome, Erin, into our family!
That has spurred this family historian to dust-off the family genealogy program and do some updating. BUT... I have had to start from scratch to rebuild the family genealogy database. Since I've changed computers over the last few years, I can't seem to find any of my "gedcom" files. I've had to print out my webpages and start inputting families in from scratch -- starting with my "Family Tree Legend" -- GenCircles.com -- MCGILL Genealogy. I'm hoping to get the WARWICK, HULL/HOHL, GWIN/GUINN/GWINN, PARIS, HURT & WAGNER families added in the coming weeks. I know there are programs (ged2html) out there that translate gedcom files to gendex.txt files to use on your webpages. BUT... is there any program out there that will translate the gendex.txt files back to gedcom files? It seems like a few years ago there was something like that. It would sure help about now in the rebuilding the family genealogy database.

Grandpa Bill & Baseball In Oklahoma
Vol 9, Iss 32 We were searching through The Oklahoman's archives this week and found some baseball articles dating back to 1908 which mentioned our grandpa Bill McGill (a tall, lefthanded, fast pitcher in the early 1900's).
In an article dated 8/19/1908, The Oklahoman. pg 9, we found the headlines where Enid Loses Long Game to Joplin -- McGill Holds Fillman Tribe Safe for Seventeen Long Innings. Seventeen Innings? WOW!
It seems that when Grandpa McGill came back from playing in the Major league in 1907 with the St. Louis Browns, one of the Oklahoma teams he played for was the Enid (Oklahoma) Railroaders, a baseball team in 1908. Below is the 8/19/1908 article.
Enid, Okla., Aug. 18 (1908) -- "A Brilliant 17 inning game was won by Joplin today on an error. McGill pitched all the way through for Enid and was invincible after the third. Joplin took Quiescer out in the eleventh and put in Pollard. Enid's four scores were made in the fourth by Sheldon, who duplicated his feat of Sunday by putting the ball over the fence when three men were on bases."
The Enid players were: Wilhite, 1b; Runkle, 3b; W. Frantz, ss; Middleton, 2b; J. Frantz, rf; Brooks, lf; McGill, p; H. Allen, c; Ashley. The Joplin players were: Fillman, 3b; Wanner, 2b; Cobb, rf; Reed, 1b; Murray, cf; Persch, lf; Ragan, ss; Harrington; Pollard, p; Quiesser, p.
In another news article dated 9/11/1908, The Oklahoman, page 10, the headlines continued: Railroaders Win Real Live Game -- McGill Pitches Good Ball While McClintock Is Knocked Out.
The news article goes on to state, "Beat the tom-toms, clash the cymbals, and kick the cow. Enid won the last game by a score of 5 to 4. Persons inclined to be mean might say Enid didn't win it, that the Mets lost it, but who cares about that.
Why not let "Parson" Frantz float out of town in the mellow glow of pious achievement and with the halo of victory resting on his classic brow? Anyone who isn't willing to do this much isn't fired with the noble sentiment of poetic justice and, what's more, is no sport.
The game was as lively and interesting as a mouse at a meeting of the ladies aid society. The Mets got an unearned score in the first when Wilhite made an excusable error on Jones' throw to catch Goes and McCormick made his customary two-base hit. In the third they polled two more on three hits, a base on balls and Brooks' error in left.
At that stage of the game nobody would have bet a cent to a dollar on Enid. McClintock seemed to be in a good way and had retired the Enid crew in order, fanning three of them. But in the fourth there was a big disturbance.
Runkle, first to face McClintock in the fourth inning hit the first ball pitched for a clean single over second. McClintock possibly had visions of a no-hit game and apparently felt hurt. At any rate he gave Jones a base on balls. Manager Frantz was next up and just to show how a manager ought to perform, biffed a stupendous two-bagger to right center, scoring Runkle and Jones.
Isbell took the cue and hit the safe spot between first and second, and Brooks was not to be outdone and carromed one over second, scoring Frantz. Joe Frantz bunted and McClintock threw the ball to third to catch Isbell and Emory -- missed it, though he might not have gotten the runner anyway.
With nobody out, three runs in and three men on bases, McClintock was whistled in and Clarence Nelson took up the burden. He hadn't warmed up and made a wild pitch scoring Isbell, but retired to the side without any more runs, which was doing well.
Rapps tied up the score in the sixth by a two-bagger and some excellent base running, and the spectators thought the Mets would pull out, but the thought was a mistake.
Neither side could score until the first of the ninth when Bill White threw crooked to first to catch McGill and the tall pitcher took third while Rapps hunted for the sphere in the weeds. Wilhite had already gone out and Allen got hit but not a hit.
Runkle popped a foul to Kelsey and it was up to "Tex" Jones. "Tex" had just been fined $5 for talking back to Shuster and was mad about it. By way of venting he smashed a single over second, scoring McGill.
The Mets could do nothing in their half, and Enid sacked up it's bats in a surprised way and asked each other how it happened. Just to be fair, McGill deserved to win this game, after the onslaught on McClintock.
Frantz' bunch only got three hits off Nelson in the six innings he pitched and probably he would have won if he had had the whole of it. You never can tell, though. It's ladie day and the rejuvenated Hutchinson crew today. The Salt-packers beat Wichita yesterday and the Mets will have to get on their toes."

About The NW Okie
Immigrants Make Up America
Vol 12, Iss 27 America - With the talk of Independence Day, and this being the day after the 4th of July 2010, We ask you, "Aren't we all immigrants or Descendants of Immigrants?"
America is a land of immigrants and Native Americans. What would America be today if immigrants from all ver the world had not set foot on the eastern shores of the 13th Colonies, pushing the Native Americans westward onto reservations. Killing and slaughtering their buffalo beyond extinction?
What part did my migrating ancestors play in the westward movement of the Native Americans? I did some searching back through my family genealogy to figure out where each of my ancestral immigrants came.
We start with our paternal ancestors. The Warwick ancestors were English. The Gwyn/Gwin/Guinn were from Wales. The Hull/Hohl ancestors came from Rhineland Palatinate (Rheinland-Pfalz), Germany. The McGill's were Scottish from Scotland, migrating to Ireland and finally making their way to the America's.
Our maternal ancestors were the Conover (VanKouwenhoven), Dutch and settling in New Amsterdam (also known as New York, Flatlands). The Paris/Parris were English. The Hurt/Hurtosci were from Czechoslovakia (Bohemia), known also as Austria-Hungary.
That brings us to our Great Grandmother, Anna Wallman (1863-1902), who married our Great Grandfather, Joseph P. Hurt, who migrated from Czechoslovakia around 1876. I do not know much about her because she died at the young age of 39 when she was struck by lightning in 1902.
I always thought that our Wallman ancestors were also from Czechoslovakia, but I found a 1880 U.S. Census that shows an Anna Wallman (born 1863, Russia) the daughter of Jacob Wallman (born 1833, Russia) and Maria (born in Russia). Could this be another Anna Wallman or could it be my Great Grandmother Anna Wallman Hurt?
The 1900 US Federal Census shows Joseph P, and Anna Wallman Hurt (born in Bohemia) and their family living in Bishop, Woods, Oklahoma Territory.
Great Grandmother Anna Wallman arrived in the USA around 1876 or 1877 through Bremen, Germany. At the young age of 16, Anna married Joseph P. Hurt, in Nebraska, about 1879. As I said earlier, Anna Wallman Hurt died in 1902, in Bishop, Woods, Oklahoma Territory, at age 39 when she was struck by lightning. She is buried in the Hurt family cemetery, on the Martin property, North of Chester and West of the Orion Cemetery.
That brings us to my husbands ancestors, which includes Wagner's from Germany.
Have you ever looked back to see where your ancestors originated? Let us know your ancestral makeup. Thanks!

1875 - Baseball Glove Come To Baseball
Vol 12, Iss 16 Did you know that baseball developed before the Civil War, but did not achieve professional status until the 1870s?
As for the very first professional team in 1869, that would be the Cincinnati Red Stockings, but their life as some say, "Their life was brief and the team went bankrupt within a year of its founding."
It was 1871 that the National Association of Professional Basebal Players was formed, at its peak and consisted of 13 teams. Those too were plagued by financial difficulties and were abandoned in 1875.
It was 1876 that the formation of the National League of Professional Baseball Players (shortened to National League) saw its formation.
The rival American League was founded in 1884 and an era of modern professional baseball had begun.
It was during these early days of baseball that players were expected to take the field without benefit of protective equipment such as a baseball glove or catcher's mask. They go on to state, "The pain of sport was to be endured without complaint. Any effort to mollify the rigors of the game was looked upon as a sissified attempt to demean the sport."
Do you know who was on a contemporary baseball care in 1887, as a 1st Base, Pittsburgh? If you guessed Sam Barkley, you guessed correctly.
In 1911, Spalding wrote of his experiences in early baseball and his first baseball glove, ""The first glove I ever saw on the hand of a ball player in a game was worn by Charles C. Waite, in Boston, in 1875. He had come from New Haven and was playing at first base. The glove worn by him was of flesh color, with a large, round opening in the back. Now, I had for a good while felt the need of some sort of hand protection for myself. In those days clubs did not carry an extra carload of pitchers, as now. For several years I had pitched in every game played by the Boston team, and had developed severe bruises on the inside of my left hand. When it is recalled that every ball pitched had to be returned, and that every swift one coming my way, from infielders, outfielders or hot from the bat, must be caught or stopped, some idea may be gained of the punishment received.
"Therefore, I asked Waite about his glove. He confessed that he was a bit ashamed to wear it, but had it on to save his hand. He also admitted that he had chosen a color as inconspicuous as possible, because he didn't care to attract attention. He added that the opening on the back was for purpose of ventilation.
"Meanwhile my own hand continued to take its medicine with utmost regularity, occasionally being bored with a warm twister that hurt excruciatingly. Still, it was not until 1877 that I overcame my scruples against joining the 'kid-glove aristocracy' by donning a glove. When I did at last decide to do so, I did not select a flesh-colored glove, but got a black one, and cut out as much of the back as possible to let the air in.
"Happily, in my case, the presence of a glove did not call out the ridicule that had greeted Waite. I had been playing so long and had become so well known that the innovation seemed rather to evoke sympathy than hilarity. I found that the glove, thin as it was, helped considerably, and inserted one pad after another until a good deal of relief was afforded. If anyone wore a padded glove before this date I do not know it. The 'pillow mitt' was a later innovation."
My Grandpa William J. "Bill" McGill began his baseball days in the earlier 1900s in Oklahoma and Kansas -- which took him down to Austin, Texas as a fast, south-paw pitcher for the Southwest Texas league with the Austin Senators and later a season with the St. Louis Browns and the Major leagues before coming back to the brand new state of Oklahoma and pitching for the Guthrie baseball team in 1909.

Inquiry - Tressie Lorene Paris Jordan
Vol 11, Iss 39 Mary Jordan Pollack says, "My mother's name is Tressie Lorene Paris. I am trying to trace her family for her 90th birthday party next month. This is a longshot but here goes. Her father's name was Albert Paris. Her mother's name was Maude Bell Franklin Paris. Her sisters were Lela Paris, Zella Paris, Mary Paris, Treila Paris and her twin sister Tessie Morene Paris. Tressie Lorene Paris was born on October 9, 1919, in Pratt, Kansas.
If there is any relationship I would be thrilled to hear from you. Thanks a lot. I am looking for family history for my mother’s 90th birthday party. I would appreciate any information. Thanks." -- mehellen@neo.rr.com
[Editor's Note: NW Okie's PARIS connection to Albert & Maude Bell Franklin Paris is as follows:
NW Okie shows, "Albert Franklin Paris, b. Mar 6, 1880, Harrison, MO; death Feb 14, 1958; son of Zeaphanie "Zeph/Sephanie" Paris, b. Jul. 25, 1856, Chandlerville, Cass Co., IL; death Dec. 26, 1926.
Zeaphanie was son of James Franklin Paris, b. Apr. 25, 1830, Madison Co., KY; death Jan. 31, 1913, Chandlerville, Cass Co., IL.
James Franklin Paris was a brother to Henry Clay Paris(NW Okie's great grandfather), b. Jul. 5, 1844, Foxtown, Madison Co., KY. Vada Paris McGill and Albert Franklin Paris were cousins.
So … Albert Franklin PARIS is NW Okie's 2nd cousin once removed. Here's how:
1. Vada Eileen (PARIS) MCGILL is my mother
2. Ernest Claude PARIS is the father of Vada Eileen (PARIS) MCGILL
3. Henry Clay PARIS is the father of Ernest Claude PARIS
4. James Franklin PARIS is a brother of Henry Clay PARIS
5. Zeaphanie "Zeph/Sephanie) PARIS is a son of James Franklin PARIS
6. Albert Franklin PARIS is a son of Zeaphanie "Zeph/Sephanie) PARIS
