Volume 14 , Issue 13

NW Okie's Corner

We just received an inquiry concerning our Vol. 9, Iss. 13, dated 2007-03-31, concerning an article, "St. Louis Browns - 1914," that Jim Bradley shared with us and said he had a 38 inch by 12 inch picture of the Browns.

Matt Shed asks, "Do you still have the St. Louis Browns photo from 1914? My great-grandfather played on the team."

My grandfather, Bill McGill, was not playing for the Browns in 1914, because he had retired from professional baseball back in 1909 or 1910 when he married my grandmother, March 24, 1910. That is why there is no McGill in either picture during 1914.

In The OkieLegacy Ezine, Volume 5, Iss. 5, 2003-02-01, S. Fox tells us that, "Foxtown, KY is north of McKee on Rt 89. It is an intersection of 89 and Foxtown Rd. Former post office / general store is on the left just before intersection. What cemetery are you looking for? ~s fox"

We received this bit of information from Gerald McLaughlin concerning Jacob Warwick. We would love to find this newspaper, but it is before the Library of Congress collection starting date. Does anyone out there know anyone or another place we might look for this article?

Main Entry, Richmond Enquirer (Richmond, Virginia, 1815, Semiweekly). Jacob Warwick died at the house of Col. Charles Cameron of Bath County (Virginia) on January 11, 1826, mentioning that Jacob Warwick, late of Pocahontas County, in his 80th year, survived by children. (p. 3, c. 5). Publication, Tuesday, January 31, 1826.
