Noble Park a.k.a. The Elbow was a federal park reservation. Protected land illegally sold to the City of Guthrie by the Land Office. Moved around and subjected to taxes and relinquishments. The settlers were dispossessed of their land. It was never abandoned. It is the forgotten community of my ancestors.
The Holy Name is there amidst the evil.

JB, this is a fair point, and much appreciated.
Your documentation of our community is invaluable. Thank you!
Some beautiful and some disturbing images. Spelling cracks me up.
