Woodford, Oklahoma Still Standing...

I presently own and live in my property here in Woodford- which also happens to be for sale. It is the former original site of the Woodford Church, and the original stoops to the church entry are still here and now serve as benches for us! I also have a few pics, as well as the original abstract to the property. The abstract is full of historical information to my land.

I also have a photo of Woodford as it was circa 1903. A typed caption reads, "The Town of Woodford, Indian Territoey (OKLA.) About 1903." (sic) The caption also identifies all of the buildings. There were two blacksmith shops (out of only about 14 buildings), so that explains all the horseshoes in your fields! Family names included in the caption: Murrey, Greer, Speake, Jolly, Akers, Taylor, Bryant.

I would love to hear anything at all about the area my grandparents lived befroe they passed, as my precious memories of them reside there. I am presently living in Australia. I was happy to find you as I have searched before and I read that Woodford is a ghost town! thanks, Linda
