McWILLIAMS / CAMPBELL (unknown) Harmon County, OK
Am trying to find out info on the McWILLIAMS and CAMPBELL families. Robert S. McWilliams was born: May 15, 1920 in Hollis, OK. He was the son of Wm. Robert and Carrline (Campbell) McWilliams. He had one other brother and several sisters. Family tradition says he was a large farm owner with many outbuildings to house migratory workers when the crops came in. He lost everything during the depression and the family eventually went to So. California (prob. late 1930's.) Carrline (Campbell) McWilliams parents, Samuel (b:1847, d:1922) and Fredericka Campbell (b:1852, d:1915) could very well be buried around Hollis. Can anyone help me? Thank-you.

CANSLER, Charles (0000) Hollis, Harmon County, OK
This was my great grandfather. My great grandmothers given name is unknown. They were known by friends and neighbors alike only as Mama & Papa Cansler. They had 4 children: Bonnie Cansler, Fannie Myrtle Elise Cansler, Guy Cansler, Goldile Lee Cansler. I need to know Mama Christian & given name, also where she and Charles originally came from. It is my understanding that they were among the first white settlers in OK. There are still Canslers in Hollis, and I am sure they must be relations. Also, my mother, Patsy Jean SARRELS, Goldie Lee Canslers oldest child is buried there.
