Happy Easter! Hope you do NOT let Uncle Sam take a bite out of your "arse" and "ears" like these little chocolate creatures! Thanks to Riddle's for the chocolate bunny Easter card.
That NW Okie has been feeling her oats the last few days as she journeys back and forth between 1910 and 2006, working on her "Old Opera House Mystery" article for the "Prairie Connection." In between here and there, she could be seen this week romping, playing around outside with us Pugs in the warm, spring temps, and listening to the old songs of the '50s, '60s on her "XM radio" in the mountain valley, of southwest Colorado.
The "Old Opera House Mystery" (Black Hand Letter Threats) article will make its debute at the newstands of the "Prairie Connection" newspaper in the near future. Meanwhile, we have included a few bio's of just a few of the cast characters involved during this murder mystery of November 9, 1910, in this week's OkieLegacy Ezine. We still are looking for a photo of Mabel Oakes.
We have also included bio's of some northwest Oklahoma Territory pioneers that helped shape this northwest part of the territory. In future ezines we will be adding more of these bios. IF ... you have a pioneer and town father that we haven't heard about or have on our website, we would love to give them a featured spot in "The OkieLegacy Ezine."
For those of you looking for the history book of northwest Oklahoma, "Pioneer Footprints Across Woods County," ... we have one FOR SALE in the "Mailbag" below.
We have a NEW OkieLegacy Guestbook. We are not asking for your E-mail address to be submitted unless you want to include it in your comments. We just want your NAME & any COMMENTS about Okie Legacies, histories, inquiries, etc... You can still sign our OLD Guestbook on the front page of OkieLegacy.
Last weekend we had some problems sending emails out through our subscriber database from our web site. AND... we are NOT sure it is going out this week, either. We have been told that our webhosting server thought it was spam because there was NO email address in the "To" field. We explained to them that it was NOT Spam. They (subscribers) are legitimate.
If this keeps up, we may have to go back to our old way of sending out the newsletter -- through our Groupmail program. We would like to hear from you to see if you did or did not receive your subscription this week. Thanks for your understanding and patience.

Just in case you received an extra copy of this last weekends OkieLegacy Ezine... We have been working with our server and have the email thing worked out and running again with our subscriber database. Thanks for the patience about letting us resend this week's ezine out again, Tuesday morning (4/18/2006). ~NW Okie (a.k.a. Linda Wagner) 2006-04-18 13:57:24
Hi Linda: I received "The Okie Legacy" right on time this week....no problems. I did enjoy getting a blue link instead of having to repeat the http:// etc. as I have been doing for the last many newsletters. A click on the blue link is so much easier and faster. Other than that there have been no transmission problems. Enjoy the letter every week. My thanks to you and your hard work. This is from Tom McCarrick, Squadron D, Army Air Corps Cadet, Alva, Spring of 1944. ~Tom McCarrick 2006-04-17 20:18:20
Got it just fine... Keep up the good work. Really enjoy reading about NW OKLA. Steve N. ~Steve Nicholson 2006-04-16 21:20:02
Coming in loud and clear here in Edmond and Oklahoma City. Keep up the good work. Always enjoyable to read about Alva and Cherokee. Our ancestors were pioneers in both places. ~Marilyn Millspaugh Merett 2006-04-15 22:34:19
