NW Okie's Journey

As we arrive into February 2015, we find Monday, February 2 in Northwest Oklahoma (Alva) came in chilly, sunny when the groundhog peeked his sleepy head out of his underground home on "Groundhog Day."

One Hundred Years Ago, 2 February 1915, Tuesday

One hundred years ago, today, 2 February, the Tulsa Daily World had some interesting front page headlines.The main headline dealt with "London Trembles With Fear When Hostile Aircraft Appears."

Other headlines dealt with "Havoc Wrought by the Cyclone On Saturday Night." But this headline: "Drastic Blow Is Aimed At Movies" had to do with no criminal pictures to be screened in Oklahoma if legislative bill passes. Also ... a pool hall bill was referred back to committee for several changes.

Sac and Fox Tribes of Oklahoma

The following information is taken from the Oklahoma Historical Society book on the History of Lincoln County. The Sac or Sauk, or people of the yellow earth, and the Fox or Mesquakie, or people of the red earth, began as two separate but neighboring tribes and their earliest known habitat was within the eastern penisula of Michigan.

Warwick, Lincoln County, Oklahoma

This leads us to another town of Lincoln county, Oklahoma, which is particularly interesting to me because my grandmother's maiden name happens to bear the same name, "Warwick." There is no connection of relatives or other namesakes in Warwick, just a similarity of the name. These photographs were taken February 25, 2001 at the southwest entrance to Warwick, Oklahoma, just north off of Route 66.

This Is Groundhog Day

With today 2 February, being Groundhog day, we did some research and found this interesting article dated 2 February 1910, in the Palestine Daily Herald, Palestine, Texas, that dealt with just that: "This Is Groundhog Day." The day was fraught with grave meaning to those whose welfare depended on sunshine and shadow.
