     a.) Joanna Unknown was a "Widow" when she maried Charles A. SERATT, by the name WINTERS.

Pat Sutton, [REF:#002] Writes: 05 Oct. 1998
     a.) Joanna's parent died early and she was raised by the SPRINGER Family.
     b.) Joanna LASLEY was married first to a SEABOLT. She had children by Mr. SEABOLT, their names are: 1. Ray, 2. Bill, 3. Cecil, 4. Cleon SEABOLT,
All four boys were living with them on the 1920 Census. They were listed as SERATT, but their name was SEABOLT.
Someone named WINTER with a child was living with them, but Was listed as non-related.
Ray SEABOLT lived with his half-sister Mrs. Vadeus (SERATT) after their parents died in 1969. In later years Vadeus put him (Ray) in a nursing home in Sallisaw, Sequoyah Co., OK. and he died their.

Lola Partain [REF:#004] Writes: 20 Jun 2004
     a.) Joanna LASLEY, was left an orphan when she was very young. She was raised by a family named SWIMMER.
     b.) Before she married my great uncle Albert Seratt, (he was my grandmother's (Ida Luvenia Seratt's) brother. I remember him well),
Aunt Joanna was married previously to Stephen SEABOLT. She already had one child, Cecil Lasley, when she married him.
James Raymond Hicks' web site indicates that Cecil's father was George W. Seabolt. (I was also informed about this very exact same thing by the wife of one of Aunt Joanna's grandsons).
George Seabolt was a son of James Madison "Cussie" Seabolt and Ollie "Tah-youl-se-nah" Foster.

This Family was tragic from the beginng!

Samuel W. SERATT, was age 23yrs when he married the 20 year old Miss Lou SEABOLT, they soon had 2 small children, Champ & "Bell" SERATT Mrs. Lou (Seabolt) SERATT, died in 1919, age 27yrs, leaving the two boys age 4 & 3yrs. Two years later in 1921, Samuel W. SERATT, age 34yrs, marries the 28 year old "Widow" Mrs. M. Ellen (Burgess) MORRIS, who had two small children, so now they have a family of four children.
     1. Carl MORRIS, age 6yrs
     2. Hazel MORRIS, age 4yrs
     3. Champ Willard SERATT, age 6yrs
     4. James Bethell SERATT, age 5yrs
Samuel W. SERATT, and 2nd wife "Widow" Mrs. M. Ellen (Burgess) MORRIS, have two children born to this 2nd Union: 5. Hazell SERATT, b. Dec 1921 and little 6. Sammie W. SERATT, b. Mar 1923
Tragic strikes agin when Samuel W. SERATT, dies in Feb. 1923, 2 months before, little Sammie W. SERATT, who was born in Sep. 1923.
Tragic happens for a thrid time when "Widow" Mrs. M. Ellen (Burgess) MORRIS,, marries for a third time, and this husband "Kills" her age 31yrs in May 1925.
Now these six Children are "Orphans"
     1. Carl MORRIS, age 10rs
     2. Hazel MORRIS, age 8yrs
     3. Champ Willard SERATT, age 10yrs
     4. James Bethell SERATT, age 9yrs
     5. Hazell SERATT, age 4yrs
     6. Sammie W. SERATT, age 2 months old

It's apparent that this Headstone was installed at a later date?...prs
Mrs. Martha Ellen (Burgess) MORRIS, SERATT, was born in Sep. 1893, but headstone reads b. 1888?
The List of Children are of two differant Husbands. Carl & Hazel are MORRIS Children and Haskell & Sammie are SERATT Children.

[SFA-REF:#003] Richard Belding Gilbert, Writes in 2006:

After Sam's first wife, Lucy Seabolt died, he married Mrs. Ellen (Burgess) MORRIS. (She had two children when they were married, named Carl and Hazel Morris). Sam and Ellen had two children together, Haskell and Sammie SERATT. Sam died shortly before Sammie was born. She was named Samuel Willis Seratt, after him, and was always known as "Sammie."
Mrs. Ellen (Burgess) MORRIS, SERATT remarried a 3rd time when Haskell and Sammie SERATT were very young. Her new husband killed her. She is buried next to her first husband, George Morris, in Maple Cemetery, Sequoyah County, Oklahoma.
The children went to live with her mother in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Her mother didn't know how to spell SERATT. She taught them to spell it "SECRAT." When she started them to school, that's how they spelled their name and did so for quite a few years. Only when they were older did they discover the real spelling of their name. (Information obtained from Patricia J. (Cates) Sutton, granddaughter of Martha Seratt Bunyard, sister of my grandma, Ida Luvenia Seratt Keen).

Obituary ~ Jimmie Randal "Jim" SECRATT, 48yrs

Jim was known as an "artist with a dozer." He loved cattle ranching, camping on the Illinois River, deer hunting and, most of all, spending time with family. He had a big smile and a big heart. He had friends all over the United States from his career in pipelining. He was known in that industry as "the best hoe hand on the line."
Jim was a good son, a dedicated father, and a loving brother. He was a "large" personality that, once you met him, you never forgot him. He was preceded in death by his father, Haskell Secratt, a sister, Martha "Susie" Secratt and a brother, Samuel.
He leaves behind a saddened family that includes his mother, Verlie Secratt;
daughters, Amy Renee Schneider and husband Phillip, and grandson, Brock of Tahlequah,
Julea Mae Clark and husband Jon-Michael of Tahlequah;
sons, Jeran "Bo" Randall Secratt and wife Jessica of Tahlequah, Hayden Randall of Stilwell and of the home,

Dean and wife Sharon of Muldrow,
Kenneth and wife, Diana of Tahlequah and
James and wife Jeannie of Tahlequah;
