Some info from webGED: Watt Data Page http://www.breeze.org/kk/f1876.htm#P6045 (original link non working www.breeze.org/ft/wga29.html) As quoted there "Dates were copied from Bible of their daughter Clarinda Prater Power. His name appears in many early Floyd Co. court records. "One of our staunch supporters Joyce Perreault, P.O. Box 223, Ripley, OK 74062 sent us a large packet of material on the family of Rev. Elijah Prater and Jae Patrick, also the family of David M. Cooper and Celia Prater. Both will be bound into book form for now and we will include the material when we can redo the Prater family book." -- Todd Preston Magoffin Co. Historical Society"
