R. C. Posey

                                                           Otter Township.
                                                     [Posey handled Sheep.]
[Note: There was no “Posey” mentioned in any of the early census taken in Cowley County. The only entry relative to “Posey” is the following, which appeared in 1886.]
                                               FROM THE NEWSPAPERS.
Winfield Courier, Thursday, March 4, 1886.
R. C. Posey was over from Otter Monday. Out of his sixteen hundred head of sheep, the severe winter only turned up the toes of thirty. His care was very careful and brought his flock out in excellent trim.
