Other Tidbits

Thanks, Bob, for that book suggestion (The Worst Hard Times - by Timothy Egan) about the Depression, Dust Bowls of the early years in Oklahoma. Great reading about those who came, lived, worked and stayed during the hard times of the Depression and Dust Bowl eras. We received our copy of the book from Barnes & Noble and have been reading it in between the other things going on in our life. It's a book hard to put down and has lots of history and facts about what it was like for those pioneers who ventured here and stuck it out during "The Worst Hard Times."

As to the Joseph Tyler Fash story last weekend, we used some of the information that we found in the "Pioneer Footprints Across Woods County" history book. If anyone out there has an ancestor and family in this history book and no book to retrieve it out of, we would like to share the information in "The OkieLegacy Ezine." Just send us your family names that lived around northwest Oklahoma in the early years. We hear tell that the "Pioneer Footprints" book is now selling for around $300 now... if you can find a copy available for sale!
