Work in Progress

Establishing identity of William P. Dunn

(Orig., I was distinguishing differences between him and another Dunn, who had probably gotten a bit mixed up in the tree.

Relevant Person and Source:

William P. Dunn aka William Perry? Dunn, born March 1849, (Blount Co.), Tennessee.

The middle initial, "P," is documented in one source, so far:

U.S. Census, 1900, Caddo, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory, Supv. Dist. 73, ED 183, Sheet 7 A (stamped 259), Township 5 S, Range 9 E (indexed as 10 E): William P Dun, aged 32, married male, head. Birth: Mar 1849, Tennessee. Both parents born in Tennessee. Married 6 years (est. 1894). Wife is Mary E Dunn (born in Georgia; mother of 4 children, 2 living). Children in the household are Jules, aged 2, born in Georgia; and Clide, aged 6/12, born in Ind.

John and Emma Green lineage (working on Kisire/Kesiah)

Study this John Green of Tennessee, who married an Emma Green of Arkansas, and moved to Oklahoma. Several of the children have names very like the Georgia/Tennessee bunch. I'm wondering if John could be a son of David, the oldest son of John and Emily (Young) Green? We have nothing on David... no clue to him or any possible offspring.

John Green, born 1865, Tennessee; resided in Haskell, Oklahoma, in 1910. Wife is Emma. Children, Luther, Buster, etc.:

---------------------------------

Also look at William Madison Green (died 16 Nov 1923, Haskell, Oklahoma), son of John Franklin Green, of Tennessee, and Nevada (?Levada?) Bingham, of Georgia.

This might be an interesting story: Bird sold whiskey to Tom Flowers, who got blind drunk and was hit by a train. In another 1903 paper, it mentions Tom Flowers again (search "hit by a train").


Bird and his wife were fined, then sent to the poorhouse...

searched "killed by a train"

In a related story: B.J. Littleton sells land to the widow of the Hayes who was killed by the train. That is in another issue (prob. same year?), similar search. It may have "Cohutta Springs" or "Summerour" in it, too.

Fix SOUND Icon on Windows 10

Video tutorial for when sound icon stops working.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOQro_gq4BI

His instructions: Go to Task Manager (looks different on mine, but I just used Search to find the Task Manager. From there, followed his fix exactly... Easy as pie!

(The fix, in case video goes missing: On Task Manager, scroll down to "Windows Explorer" in the list, right-click and choose "Restart." Then minimize or close all windows, go to your desktop, right-click and "refresh." (I did it 3 times, because he did--not sure if that's necessary).
