OK vital records -
OK began filing original birth and death records in October of 1908. It was not mandatory until 1917 that these records be filed and of course the earlier years are sketchy.

Need to know who the daughters married???
Need 1st & last names + birthplaces.

1930 is the last available census at this time.
