Here they are, that young couple who married at Kullie Chaha in Indian Territory on March 9, 1899. Now they have five children. My Grandpa Verb Sharp is standing directly behind his mother, Vernie. Standing behind his dad is Vassar Newt Sharp. Vas was the second born. In front sitting at her dad's feet is Mirl Sharp and next to her is her sister Ev. Her name was EVA but we always called her Aunt Ev. The boy between his parents is Oscar Vansler. We all knew him as Uncle Bawley. At this time they would be living in LaFleur County around Poteau somewhere. Uncle Bawley was born in 1911. Aunt Ev was born in 1910.

Sheena - this photo is quite similar to the few I have of Mary I Poole and William Grundy Tucker with their children at a few stages in the family life. They actually went back to OK from TX to be closer to William and perhaps Mary's siblings - thanks again for posting such a nice photo with great details.
