CONCLUSION
Mrs. Aaron Casey (Kay Flood) Hanger was
born December 17, 1975, one hundred forty years after her great-great-
grandmother, Mary Ann Witt (Mrs. William Stephens Jones), who was born
December 17, 1835. For Mary Ann's suffering through the grueling hardship
of pioneer life and for her courageous battle she fought to see her
children inherit the beauty of the Oklahoma countryside may her memory be
kept as to the success of her efforts in this rare faceted gift she left
to her granddaughters and grandsons. May we always respectfully remember.
To know of and to remember the love and wishes for their family to have a
chance for a good, clean, free life will be a way we have of acknowledging
and respecting their caring and their hard work. Will we be able to
continue to follow their example and to make our own contributions to our
children's future, and in so doing make a contribution not only to our own
but to all those who are around us?

house. The date was April 25, 1993 in Ponca City, Oklahoma. Casey's birth
date is July 14, 1976.
Kay Flood Hanger and Aaron Casey Hanger

1993.
