SURNAME - ALRED Query - ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am searching for the family of Robert Maxwell Mitchell born March 17, 1869 in Dade County, Mo., he died January 10, 1916 in Trousdale, Pottawatomie County, and is buried in the Old Moral Cemetery in Tribbey, Pottawatomie co, Oklahoma. He was the son of Raleigh and Cynthia Underwood Mitchell, his siblings would have been James B.(Box), Theodosia, Alice Jane, Charles, (or Charlie), John T., Albert Reeves, all of these siblings stayed in Dade County, but some of there family moved to Oklahoma. Alice Jane married a Robertson, first and their son Tom lived most of his life in Oklahoma later on Alice Jane married Clarence C. or Can Ingraham and they lived in Oklahoma, possible in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma. Alice Jane and Can have a grandson Hallie Ingraham that lives in this area, his address is Lexington, his phone is Tribbey, and his grandchildren go to school in Noble, Ok. I think the spot he lives in which is suppose to be the area that Robert Maxwell Mitchell settled. It in is what they often called in never land as to what law, or what county matches the area. Robert Maxwell Mitchell parents was both born in Tennessee, and came with their families to Dade Co. in 1850 from Warrren Co, Tn. Robert Maxwell Mitchell left Dade County for Pottawatomie, Co., when an older brother Box Mitchell and their Uncle Taylor Underwood became involved in a supposed horse stealing ring. It is said that Box panicked not wanting his younger brother name tainted, or him to be involved so he made a deal to do whatever it took to get his younger brother Robert left out of the ordeal. Taylor Underwood was a brother to their mother, and he managed to stay one step of the law until they was through haling people on the courthouse lawn, it is said that the only reason Box wasn't hung was he pretended to tell them he knew where Taylor was in order to free Bobby. Robert Maxwell Mitchell married Anna Bell Hackett on Oct. 14, 1895 at Tecumseh, Pottawatomie Co. Ok. she was born in Cedar Co., Mo. Nov. 29, 1880, the daughter of Leroy Hackett and Martha Allie, Elred, or Alred. Their children was Oma, Alpha Altus, Bennie, Andy, Almond (or Almon) Ernest, Allie, Mattie, and Hattie Florence, all born in Ok., in this same area, most likely all in Pottawatomie Co. Robert Maxwell's father Raleigh Mitchell was born in March 1838, died 1910 in Dolberg, Oklahoma, and his mother Cynthia Underwood Mitchell was born October 1837, died December 25, 1908 and is buried in the Hickory Grove cemetery in Arcola, Dade Co, Mo. Raleigh and Cynthia Mitchell raised their children east of Arcola, Mo. where he found land to homestead after their first son Box was born in 1859, this area is known to the locales as Googer, and is now mostly under the Stockton Lake. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Name - Taleah Wilkinson Email -  trose51@altavista.net Age - 41-51 Visit -  monthly
