BIOGRAPHY: Edward & Jane McGlothlin constructed a home, using the timber from the covered wagon, near a wooded area along the Washita river in what is now Roger Mills County, Oklahoma, and planted about 30 acres of cotton. The last 2 of their 4 children were born in that cabin. In 1913, Ed & Jane went to another part of their ranch and built a red stone house from material gathered from a hill behind the structure. The tiny 2 room house is in ruins by 2003 but at one time housed Ed & Jane; Oran and his wife, Mana, and their son Edward H.; and Roy & his wife, Letha, and their son, Oran W.

BIOGRAPHY: During the 1930s, the great Drought hit west Oklahoma, and the McGlothlin ranch was right in the middle of it. Oran W. remembered seeing a cloud of dust that stretched as high as the sky and across the horizon. Times were lean, so Oran H. McGlothlin decided to sell off his portion of the ranch and moved his family on to Farmington, New Mexico where he drove a truck for a farm. Edward H., my father, eventually married Tracy Carver, had a daughter (Connie Jean), and moved to Arizona where he ended up joining the army. Dad & Tracy divorced later while he was serving in France during WWII. While in Germany, he sustained some major injuries and was sent to the VA hospital in El Paso, Texas where he met my mother, Louella Svoboda, who was an army physical therapist there. They married soon after in New Mexico and moved to Berwyn, Illinois where I was born. Source: Edward Glen McGlothlin web site (See source list for citation and full text).
