The Rest of the Story...

Moundridge School... I believe the other Mound Ridge school was 15 west of Alva on the north side of highway 64 on the old Smithson place.

Alva, OK - Block 29, Lots 17 thru 32... I also attended Longfellow 1936, 1st grade, under Mrs Summers. You may remember a little boy getting in lots of trouble, thats me. also my grandfather Huff ran in the 'Run' settled 4 miles south of Capron, friends and neighbors of the Fash,s. small world?

Airport & Flying School East of Alva... by Vic Vickers -- "Srickland Airport Flying School was written by my oldest brother, Clifford M Vickers, A.K.A. Max. Max was a retired American Airline Captain and resided in Las Vegas. Last year, while driving his Jeep Grand Cherokee and pulling his small RV travel trailer to the mountains and desert which he loved to do, he lost control rounding a curve and was killed. My name is Leon Strickland Vickers and I was born in Alva on East Barnes in November 1937. I grew up in Wichita, KS and as Alva was my Mother''s home, we visited a lot. When I was about 10 or so, I briefly attended scholl at Longfellow there in Alva. I can remember going our to my Uncle Leo's airport and playing with the Link Trainer. My Uncle Dave Arndt lived west of Alva, somewhere around Buffalo (I think). Whenever we visited there, we had to go through the caves found on the farm. My parents, Clifford M and Flossie Irene Vickers are buried in the Alva Cemetery (the one on the hill west of town). I have a cousin still in Alva, Carolyn Strickland DeMaree. Max had mentioned this site to me but this is my first visit."

WARRICK/WARWICK Researcher... Louis, this is a nice write up. Keep me informed if you get any results. I wish one of our Warricks could do the DNA.
