his is the research about three young daughter's of the alleged father T. C. Coffey who drowned in Bond Creek near Wanette, Pottawatomie Co., Oklahoma. This is my on-going research and not complete. Corrections to the article: I believe the father's name was Ephraim VanWinkle/Vernon Coffey and not T. C. Coffey; I believe they drowned in Pond Creek instead of Bond Creek. The mother was actually the step-mother of the girls. The real mother Elizabeth J. "Eliza" (Wood) Coffey previously died 1899 or 1900 in OK. Ephraim Coffey married second Beulah B. Roach 10 Feb 1901 in Pottawatomie Co., OK. Believe the mother was this 2nd wife Beulah B. (Roach) Coffey.
