Notes:

Hi Michael, Sorry I haven't gotten this to you sooner. Here is the information that I have on Emery Hendrix Farrill. He was born December 10, 1905 in Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. He married Alta Elreno Oxford September 1, 1928. She was born August 30, 1901 in Eufaula, Indian Territory. Emery Hendrix Farrill was the son of Emery Farrill and Emma Hariett Hendrix. Emery Farrill was born May 1, 1876 in Sebastian County, Arkansas and died March 27, 1923 in Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. He is buried at Whitefield Cemetery, Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. Emma Harriett Hendrix was born May 16, 1875 in Rock Branch, San Bois County, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory and died December 16, 1966 in Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. She is buried at Whitefield Cemetery, Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. They were married August 1, 1895 in Whitefield, Indian Territory. Children of Emery and Emma Farrill are Anna Farrill, Zelma Lee Farrill, Emery Hendrix Farrill, Theodosia Daisy Farrill, Herman Walter Farrill, Carruth Neal Farrill, Boyd Bonnell Farrill and Bernice Farrill. I have more information about the children of Emery and Emma Farrill. I just wasn't sure how far you were carrying your family tree and am only listing direct ancestors of Emery Hendrix Farrill. Emery Farrill was the son of Thomas Emery Farrill and Susan Lanzy Williams. Thomas Emery was born September 14, 1849 in Charleston, Tallahatchie County, Mississippi and died February 14, 1927 in Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. He is buried at Whitefield Cemetery, Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. Susan Lanzy Williams (daughter of Jeremiah Williams and Elizabeth ?) was born November 20, 1850 in Mississippi, and died February 14, 1920 in Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. She is buried at Whitefield Cemetery, Whitefield, Haskell County, Oklahoma. Thomas Emery and Susan Lanzy Farrill were married in 1871. (I would assume they were married in Sebastian County, Arkansas but have not found documented proof yet, however, they may have married prior to moving to Arkansas, and would have married in Mississippi.) Children of Thomas Emery and Susan Lanzy Farrill were Morgan William Farrill, Walter Farrill, Emery Farrill, J. Buford Farrill, Beaulah Farrill, Luther Farrill, Grover Cleveland Farrill. (Again, I have information on these children.) Thomas Emery Farrill was the son of W. W. Farrill and Eliza Williams. W.W. was born May 20, 1820 in Tennessee and died September 11, 1895 in Mt. Enterprise, Haskell County, Oklahoma. He is buried in Palestine Cemetery, Mt. Enterprise, Haskell County, Oklahoma. Eliza Williams was born 1820 in Tennessee and died before 1895 in Indian Territory, Oklahoma. She is buried at Palestine Cemetery, Mt. Enterprise, Haskell County, Oklahoma. Children of W.W. and Eliza Farrill are Chesterfield Farrill, Martha Emily Farrill, Madora Alice Farrill, Stephen W. Farrill, Wilson Taylor Farrill, Thomas Emery Farrill, Joseph Farrill, Nicholas H. Farrill, Gari Baldi Farrill and Anna L. Farrill. (Again, I have information on these children). Here lies my brick wall!!! along with several other researchers of the Farrill family. It is believed that W.W.'s name is Wilson or Wiltz. It is hard to say! One researchers swears it is Wiltz, and one researcher says it is Wilson. At this time, it still remains a mystery to me as it has not been proven either way. So, I just call him "ole' W.W." I have done some research in Tennessee but have not found information that proves anything as far as parents or place of birth other than Tennessee. Most of this research was found in the book Oklahoma Indian Territory, by Ted Byron Hall. This book has a wealth of information in it on this family and connected families that were settlers in and around Whitefield, Enterprise, area. My sister and I have searched for one of these books to purchase but so far have only found one book on the internet and they wanted close to $300.00 for it. Sorry, not rich!!!!! My husband would kill me if I spent $300.00 for one book. However, it is located in several libraries in that area and you can, of course, make copies of the information you need. I think it would be less than $300.00 to just copy the book! (haha) We have searched in antique shops, book shops, and everywhere else that we can think trying to come up with this book. So, if you find one, for less than $300.00, you better nab it or tell me where it is!!!!! My husband and I live in Virginia, around the Richmond area, and have found wealth of information on other families I am researching. Unfortunately, the Farrills haven't popped up in Virginia yet) There are some Farrills around here and I have done research on Farrill in Virginia but nothing yet. As I said, I do have additional information on most of these families. Some of the information is public record and some is from individuals. I will be happy to share more information with you. Where do you live? Well, need to get some work done around here today so will close for now. As you can see, we are probably cousins, so it is nice to meet you, Cousin. Hope to hear from you soon.
