Thank you for your wonderful webpage!  I got so much info.  I am a
descendant of Wilson C.Felkins.

I am wondering if you have any pictures of the Felkins and if you have
the correct marriage date for Ella Iola LINGLE to Clarence COMINGDEER.
It says 1982, but I don't think that is correct.
Thanks again!
Kristin Masse

Hello Kristin -
Great to hear from you.  Since we are both descended from Wilson C. Felkins, we are cousins!  I'm assuming that you found this information on the Rootsweb database that I have posted.  I hope that you also visited my personal genealogy website which is called Our Kin: A Family History Collection.   The URL is http://www.connectingourkin.com 
 
Sorry that I don't have any photographs of Felkins.  My mother knew her great grandmother, Mary Jane Felkins, but she was Grandmother Bratcher at that time.  Her first husband, Joseph Lingle, had died, and she had remarried.  I don't believe that Mom has any pictures of her great-grandmother, nor prior to that. 
 
I'm surprised that you would ask about the marriage date of Ella and Clarence Comingdeer.  The date is correct.  Ella was first married to my father in 1938.  They were divorced about 1970.  She lived alone for a number of years, and then married Clarence Comingdeer.  Mom is now 85 years old and lives with my sister, Donna, in Ft. Smith, Arkansas.
 
Thanks so much for writing.  It's always great to meet kinfolk.
 
Sincerely,
James (Jim) H. Carroll
