957 Quit Claim Deed indicates that J. L. Cordum paid $580 to T. S. Ross, who then transferred ownership of the property to Will Pickens. The property is described:
"All of the improvements on what is known as The Hulsey Place located about 10 miles NW of the town of Ardmore, and being the place where J L Cordum now resides, including about 80 acres in cultivation and about 120 acres of timber land."
Further investigation of land deeds give the location as the south half of the northeast quarter of Section 30, Township 30 South, Range 1 East. Overlaying the old maps onto current Oklahoma maps, that puts the location of "the Hulsey place" somewhere near Rocking 4 Road, outside of Ardmore.
 
Cordum, James Louis (I4614)
 
958 Quoting from the "Genealogy fo Ethiel Cushman"

In the great struggle for religious freedom, a group of "Separatists" or "Dissenters" residing in the north of England fled to Holland in 1609 to escape the prevailing persecutions of the Church and the Crown. Robert Cushman of Kent was among those who removed to Holland. After a few years residence in the Dutch city of Leyden, these Pilgrims realized that in course of time they would become merged with the Dutch and as a consequence their identity would thus become lost. They determined to establish a colony In the New World and delegated Robert Cushman and John Carver to return to England to negotiate with the Merchant Adventurers in London to settle in the colony which they were planting In Virginia. As principal agent of the Pilgrims, Robert Cushman made several trips to England and after long and difficult negotiation a patent was obtained. Permission was also obtained from King James to enjoy liberty of conscience in the New World.

After surmounting many discouragements, a company of Pilgrims numbering 102 persons set sail In the Mayflower from Plymouth, England, for the unknown wilderness. After a long and arduous voyage they landed at Plymouth in New England in November, 1620. Organization of the venture that was to play so vital a role in the founding of a Nation was accomplished largely by the business sagacity and perseverance of Robert Cushman as business agent of the Pilgrims. Destiny, however, did not place him among the immortal passengers aboard the Mayflower, the vessel that was destined to become so famous.

Nevertheless, he did come to the Plymouth Colony the following year aboard the Fortune, accompanied by his fourteen-year old son Thomas. He soon returned to London to report to the Merchant Adventurers regarding the state of affairs in the Colony. Expecting to return to Plymouth for permanent settlement, he left his son in care of the family of Governor Bradford. Business Interests of the Colony detained him in London for some time and while making preparations to return in a ship about to sail for Plymouth he died in January or February 1625.

992 Samuel Scott rode a horse to tell the neighbors that Sherman was coming (probably in Mississippi).

He said if Sherman was going to take her, he didn't intend to see it.
[memo written by Deborah Price, as part of her research in the 1970s]

During the war, there was a battle near Guntown, related to Sherman's Meridian campaign. It seems likely that this anecdote related to preparations for the Battle of Brice's Crossroads.
The Battle of Brice's Crossroads, also known as the Battle of Tishomingo Creek and the Battle of Guntown, was fought on Friday, June 10, 1864, near Baldwyn, Mississippi, then part of the Confederate States of America. A Federal expedition from Memphis, Tennessee, of 4,800 infantry and 3,300 cavalry, under the command of Brigadier-General Samuel D. Sturgis, was defeated by a Confederate force of 3,500 cavalry under the command of Major-General Nathan Bedford Forrest.[2] The battle was a victory for the Confederates.
