OkieLegacy - Great Site

"I ran across your site recently and you have done a great job! I loved seeing the 1928 Alva Band photo which contains my grandfather Lester G. Duck who grew up around Avard and later Alva. Thanks for sharing it and all the other news from NW Oklahoma. I grew up in Mooreland, but moved away many years ago. It has been fun to read the articles and see the photos of this area once again!

I have been going through all of my grandfather's and great-grandfather's family history material recently and there are a few old stories that might be interesting for your newsletter. I will see what I can pull together and be in touch soon. My great-grandfather, Glenn E. Duck. He wrote a number of stories about the Oklahoma Land Run and his early childhood days around Avard. Later, he was a depot agent for the railroad in Alva. If you ever run across more Duck family history material, I would love to hear about it. I have picked up where my grandfather, Lester G. Duck left off in his research. Thanks!" -- Patricia, Santa Monica, CA   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
