Okie Legacies (History of Oklahoma)

"A fascinating site-well done. How interesting to read about the Last Indian Raid and Reuben Bristow. I have done very little research other than to discover that Bristow is said to originate from Bristol (England). Brigstowe meaning an assembly place near the bridge. The Bridge is still called Brigstow. It is argued (Amerike-The Briton who gave America its name) that on St John the Baptist's Day, 1497, America was found by the merchants of Bristow in a ship of Bristowe called the Mathew. Who knows! Best wishes to all." -- Derek Bristow of Brampton near Huntingdon, England - Email: derekhenry@bristow47.freeserve.co.uk
