!LETTER: From Mrs. Vera Lucille (Weatherford) Mosco, 212 West. Merrick Street, Henryetta, Okl ahoma 74437. Addressed to Don Martin Thomas, Salt Lake City, Utah 84103. Postal Dated Tuls a OK PM 13 Mar 2001. Letter reads as follows: 3-14-2001, Dear Mr. Thomas, I was so surprise d to hear from you, I've had to think about answering. Seems to me you know more about my fa mily than I ever did. I was living with my Grandma Stubblefield as my first memory & of cour se my Great Grand Mother Mary E. Smith. I was only 10 when I rember the 1st death in our fam ily which was Will Smith. My Grandmother brother & then I was 12 when my mother Vallie Suble tt was killed in a car wreck near Ada, OK. She was running away from Sublett & had went to h er ex husbands sister to get away. She was not related to any one there. - Ada, OK. I live d with my Grand Mother till I was nearly 17 yrs at which time I married & had 3 sons. I marr ied Nick Mosco at that time of my life, we were married 57 yrs. I lost him Dec. 22-96. By t hat time I'd lost my family on my mothers side of the family & also a lot of memories. Somet imes I wish I had paid more attention to things I was told. But I'll be 79 yrs. old in Jul y so its a little late. I never dreamed of ever coming back to Henryetta but my husbands nei ces & nephews & their familys live here. My husband & his family worked the coal mines. I m et a surprise relative recently they're also moving back here. I havent really got to visi t with them yet but I'll let them read your letter. The man is Uncle Will Smith's grandson . He was the son of "Ode" Smith. I barely remember her. I remember Ada & George Malone sh e was Uncle Will's daughter too. My Grand Mother & her sister kept in touch with them fo r a long time but they'd both be dead by now & they dident have children. My sister is als o deceased she married Jake O. Davis of Houston. She had a daughter & son but they know les s about the family than I did. As far as Ettie Lick Cathey she lived in California for all m y life so I never knew her or her family. I remember she had two son's Jack & Ferron. She m arried Teck Cathey from Indianola, OK. I don't know much else only there is still Cathey i n Indianola but the few I'd met & talked too was old, 20 years ago. I can tell you very litt le about my Great Grandmother only I loved her very much. She used to tell me stories abou t the Civil war, of which I can recall very little. I know she received a veterans check fro m that war - Civil - she took care of the whole family the best I remember. I know she live d to 96 yrs & was blind & deaf. She could hear, but you had to yell & she was well taken car e of & kept at home all her final years. I never remember hearing anything about Orego n - I remember she kept me from spankings. All I had to do was yell long enough & she'd mak e them (Mother & Grandma) let me alone. Thats my best memory. Well after you try to read al l this you may be sorry you wrote. Its been interesting but at my age I don't remember a lot . I'm planning on a couple of trips this spring & summer. I'v just got to take my first ai r plane trips these last few years & love it. I have a wonderful neighbor - shes a widow to o & a little younger so we go shopping & church together. Her family has adopted me & my fam ily (older generation) is really getting small. Hope you can at least read some of this. Yo ur Cousin Lucille Mosco "Its a real Keeper" I have an old picture of the older generation I h ad copies made for my sons & if I can get another made I'll send you one, it might be awhile.
