McAdams & Pine Valley, Oklahoma...

"I am trying to get in touch with a Mr. Frank Powel who posted a memory of his days in Pine Valley, Oklahoma. Mr. Powel posted this in 2002. He mentions several of my family members in his story. I would like to get in touch with him. Could you possibly help me? My grandfather was the Mill Super he mentions and he also mentions two of my uncles. I was thrilled to read your e-mail regarding Pine Valley - My Grandfather was H.J. McAdams - the mill "super" and Ray was my uncle.

Before she died, my Mother - Mary Wilda McAdams took us through what little is left of Pine Valley. She mentions it many times in her diary. I think she was just 16 when her father (H.J. McAdams) died. She and her mother, Mary Ellen as well as Ray moved back to DeQueen. Most of my uncles worked for Dierks, including my uncle O.C. (Babe) McAdams. If you have any other or care to share any other information, please e-mail me. My mother refers to the hotel and to the movie theater in her diary." -- Mary Hamilton, Walterboro, SC - Email: m.hamilton02@comcast.net   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
