Hi again Billie Jo:No problem.In any case, I checked some of my data and, although, I have nothing on Jasper Newton Myers in my files, I may have a lead for you.My grandfather had a brother, Thomas Lanford Myers, who also lived in Oklahoma in 1905.Tom Myers had 8 children, one of which was named Joseph (middle name unknown).Tom Myers died in 1914 of injuries received while working on a steam operated threshing machine. Most (but not all) of his children were young adults when he died.I regret I have no idea who young Joseph married.I have a picture of Thomas Lanford Myers and his second wife along with his 8 children (including Joseph) and at least one son-in-law and a grandson that I received via email.There may also be a daughter-in-law in the picture but no one named Sarah.If you are interested in receiving a copy of this picture, send me your email address and I'll email a copy to you.I know that at least one daughter left Oklahoma and went to Texas.One son ultimately moved to California.It's entirely possible that some of the children of Tom Myers stayed in Oklahoma and possibly Jasper Newton Myers is, in fact, a descendant of Tom Myers.I hope this helps.Sincerely, Dee
