Mary Ellen DUNAWAY>SLOAN>HOWELL
I am seeking any information on Mary Ellen DUNAWAY.This lady is my elusive
Great-Grandmother.
She married George E. SLOAN in Hopkins County, TX in 1884.They had four
children:Oscar Sampson, John Franklin, Tullie Ann, and Serena.Both John
Franklin and Serena were born somewhere in or around Mannsville, Chickasaw
Nation, Indian Territory in 1890.They family moved at some point to the
Hobart, OK area.
John Sloan married Icy Belle Foust in Anadarko, OK in 1908.Serena Sloan
married James T. Garrett in Hobart, OK in 1907.
According to Serena Sloan Garrett's obituary, she had two half-brothers by
the names of Hubert Howell and Ernest Howell who were living in Oklahoma at
the date of her death in 1969.
I believe that Mary Ellen Dunaway must have married a HOWELL at some point
before 1944 when Oscar Sampson SLOAN's obituary was published.That
obituary mentioned half-brothers and step brothers and sisters but made no
mention of a father or a mother.
If anyone has any idea whatsoever about where I might look to find
information on Mary Ellen DUNAWAY, I would very much appreciate your
contacting me.Thank you so much.
