are:

2. Joan Saunders, b. 1877 MO, d. 1951. buried Stroud Cemetery, Stroud, OK. She
was never married. Joan was a Matron at Bacone College in Muskogee, OK. She
took care of Thelma Louise (Saunders) Jones for a time after the death of
Thelma's father, William Creed Saunders in 1919.
3. Jessie L. Saunders, b. abt 1879, d. abt 20 yrs old; married a doctor; buried in
Collinsville, OK
4. Elizabeth “Lizzie” (Saunders) Thompson, b. abt. 1882/83; married Clarence E.

Oran Saunders for a time after the death of his father, William Creed Saunders in

Clarence E. Thompson had a daughter, Sarah May (Thompson) McDaniel, born
April 6, 1912, d. July 25, 2005. Sarah sent me a letter in 1996 telling me about
my Grandfather, William Creed Saunders, and provided me with names of
ancestors which enabled me to find quite a bit of information on my family. She
lived in Lane, Kansas at that time.
5. Earl B. Saunders, b. abt. 1884/85. Earl married Mary. They had 3 girls, Emma
Joan and Ruth, and a boy who died in infancy and buried in Colorado where Mary
was from.

Oklahoma. She married Roy Harmon, b. March 29, 1880, d. January 10, 1951.
They had a son who was named Saunders Harmon who died in infancy, a girl,
Olga, and a boy, Kenneth Harmon. Lurah and Roy were buried at Fairlawn
Cemetery in Cushing, OK. Lurah took care of Lorene Viola Saunders for a time
after the death of her father, William Creed Saunders in 1919.
7. William Creed Saunders, (born February 2, 1890, Kaw Co, Missouri?, Kay City,
Kay Co, Oklahoma? Arkansas, City, KS? Or Missouri?). “Willie” was a cement mason
and did cement work all over the town of Cushing, OK. He died August 14, 1919,
Cushing, Oklahoma while repairing a well that had gas fumes at the bottom. He was also
sick with the flu at the time – an unnecessary death. He was doing a favor for someone
who insisted he repair her well. William Creed Saunders married Cora Effie (Brown) on
December 1, 1910, Cushing, OK. Cora Effie (Brown), b. March 15, 1892, Lebanon,
MO, d. December 17, 1973, Oklahoma City, OK. She married two more times after the
death of our grandfather. She married O. J. Bryan (Orville, I think), and after he died,
she married Jimmy Robertson. Jimmy's mother's name was Cora as well, and he had a
brother named Jake, I believe. Cora and Jimmy moved to Aurora, Colorado, and after
Jimmy died, she lived in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma until her death in 1973. She was
very well loved by her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Grandmother
Cora was very giving. Her whole body shook when she laughed. She chose to be happy
and was a joy to be around. She is buried in Cushing, Oklahoma next to our
Grandfather, William Creed Saunders, at Fairlawn Cemetery. I understand that my
grandfather was a soft-spoken, hard-working man. I wish that we could have known
him.
Their Children:
1. Infant Saunders, died January 12, 1912, Cushing, Oklahoma. I believe
Infant Saunders is buried next to Cora Effie's father, Robert Samuel Brown,
b. September 10, 1858, MO, d. April 10, 1912, of a heart attack in Cushing,
OK.. Robert made the burial arrangements, and probably purchased the
lots at New Zion Cemetery, Cushing, Oklahoma at that time. I read where
there is an unmarked grave near or next to the grave of Robert Samuel
Brown. Cora and William must have been heart-broken when their firstborn died. Robert Samuel Brown died 3 months after his grandchild died.
2. Thelma Louise (Saunders) Jones, born January 20, 1914, Cushing,
Oklahoma, died June 27, 1992, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Thelma
married John Henry Jones, born September 9, 1911, Oklahoma City,
Oklahoma, died November 22, 2008, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. They
were married June 19, 1932 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. There had been
a bad flood in Capital Hill on the south side of Oklahoma City in June,
1932. Cora Effie (Brown) Saunders Bryan and her children, Thelma
Louise, Douglas Oran and Lorene Viola Saunders, escaped with the clothes
on their back. The story was that Grandmother Cora wanted to go back and
get her corset, but they wouldn't let her. Just a day or two later, Thelma and
John were to be married. Thelma had to borrow a dress to wear for the
wedding, and they were married at the home of Margaret Eckel. She was a
beautiful bride and John a handsome groom. John and Thelma had 2 boys
and 1 girl, still living as of 2013. Thelma Louise was an accomplished
pianist and had a pretty alto voice. Her daughter would get on the organ
and her mother the piano and they would play “Winter Wonderland” each
Christmas. She was the pianist at Capital Hill Baptist Church for several
years before she married. Thelma and John had a long marriage, 60 years
and one week, and they were loved. Thelma Louise (Saunders) died of a
massive stroke. John Henry Jones, died at the age of 97 in a car accident.
He had a “medical event” and caused damage to several cars. Thankfully,
no additional lives were lost.
3. Lorene Viola (Saunders) Newell, born December 28, 1917, Cushing,
Oklahoma, died April 8, 1999, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. She died as a
result of several strokes, I believe. Lorene Saunders married Franklin
Pierce Newell, born 1915, died 1987, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Both
buried at Chapel Hill Cemetery, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. They had 3
lovely girls, still living as of 2013. My Aunt Lorene was a gracious and
loving mother to her children. I remember her talent in drawing babies, etc.
She also had a talent for decorating her home. She married her 2nd husband,
Hugh Cunningham and he died before 1999 and is buried at Chapel Hill
Cemetery.
4. Douglas Oran Saunders, born June 19, 1916, Cushing, Oklahoma, died
March 13, 1996, Temple., Texas at the VA Hospital. Buried at Roger
Cemetery, Rogers, Texas (5 miles out of Tolar). His first marriage was to
Vivian Claudia (Clements) and had one son, Ronald Douglas Saunders,
born July 28, 1935; died August 11, 2002, New York, New York. Douglas
Oran Saunders 2nd marriage was to one of my favorite aunts, Juanita Grace
Brownlee, born November 21, 1921, died March 23, 2001, Fresno,
California. As a child, I thought she was absolutely beautiful. They had a
boy and a girl, still living as of 2013 on the west coast. Douglas Oran
Saunders 3rd marriage was to Easter Marie (Hill), born 1926. They were
married May 13, 1966. No children. Douglas Oran Saunders, like his
father, died an unnecessary death. He went to the VA Hospital in Temple,
Texas for some tests, and they put him on oxygen. The new oxygen tubes
had not been flushed out before being purchased by the hospital, and they
were toxic. About 11 people lost their lives because of this, one of which
was a much-loved father, uncle and friend to all, Douglas Oran Saunders.
The nieces and nephews loved his magic tricks.
We also have ancestral connections to these families through their wives:

This is our branch of the Saunders Family, their wives, parents and
ancestors. This search is never-ending and always interesting and has been
one of the most fulfilling things in my life which, of course includes my
children, grandchildren and great grandchildren who are still living but not
mentioned here for privacy reasons.
Dear Mr. Saunders:
Enclosed please find by attachment the gravestone of my great grandparents, William H. Saunders, born December, 1834,
KY, died 1905, Stroud, OK and his wife, Ellen Jerushia (Dysart) Saunders, born August 26, 1848, KY, died December 6,
1918, Cushing, OK, both being buried in Stroud Cemetery, Stroud, OK.
I have also enclosed the gravestone and picture of one of their daughters, Joan Saunders, born 1877, Missouri, died 1951;
buried at Stroud Cemetery, Stroud, OK, probably next to her parents,William and Ellen Saunders.
Not realizing that I would be sending some of the Saunders information to another branch of the Saunders family, I had
previously written information on some of the documents that I printed at the Oklahoma Historical Society. Will that be a
problem? Now I wish that I had typed the information and attached it as an additional page. It would have looked better.
Your site is so well put together.
Thank you for your advice and patience and I will look forward to hearing from you regarding the receipt of these "test
copies."
Yours truly,
Coralee (Jones) Cornelius corycornelius@ymail.com
