Hello,
This is my first Zumwalt posting. My grandaunt was IRENE THORNTON born in Tate County,
MS around 1882. She married JOHN J. ZUMWALT of Frederick, OK. in 1903. He was born about
1882 and died 1975 in Frederick, OK. I believe that they had at least 5 children. I
would be happy to hear from anyone who knows of these folks or who has any suggestions for
further research. Thanks.

I am not sure if this is your John J. Zumwalt but there is a possible match in Helynn
Carrier's work ONE ZUMWALT FAMILY on page 51 it has a John Joshua Zumwalt child of
William Larken Zumwalt. There are no other notations for this child but his father died
in OK. William was born about 1855. died OK about Feb 1925; Married ca. 1875 Jane
Turner: They have 10 children named Arthur Lewis Larken, Ella Rebecca, Laura Bess, John
Joshua, Rachel Frances, Willie May, Joseph Palmer, who was born in Tillman Co. OK about
1890, Lindley Murray, Evelyn Jane, and Edwin Larkin Zumwalt. I hope this gives you a
lead.
