Drumright History
My grandmother grew up on Virginia St. in Drumright, and my grandfather lived on Duke. His father, Alva Craig, owned a barber shop there sometime during the late 1930's through 1952. I have been looking at your picture and can't wait to travel out that way to see the place where my grandparents grew up. Your pictures inspired me very much!

Been there
Hi Pam,... 28 years later, I'm a little home-sick. Picture # 41, the windows in the upper left, my very first apartment. I was 18 y/o. Tons of memories. I haven't been back in years, was feeling nastalgic today and plugged Drumright into my browser. Never thought I'd find such a tour, thanks Pam....RWH (17 Jan 2005)

Broadway & Virginia
Pam, picture 72 of your collection is the corner of Broadway (the road you were traveling down) and Virginia. I have a thousand memories (at least) of that corner. The DHS marching band used to line up there for the Christmas parade. I can still remember (believe this?) the goosebumps on the drum majorette's legs as they waited in the cold for the parade to begin.

Drumright in the 1950's and 60's was a wonderful town and today has a marvelous group of people who support town spirit. Maybe some day you can spend a little more time in Drumright and photograph some of the neater spots on and off Broadway.

Thanks for the walk (or should I say "ride") down memory lane.

Drumright Pictures
Even though I left Drumright in 1962 and have been back only about 5 times since, I recognize many of the scenes in your pictures. They are very good.

"Get your kicks on Route 66"
Oh yeah, looking at your pics & captions reminded me of that famous song which includes Oklahoma City. I've been that scenic [yet lonesome] route starting West but didn't get far only going 'til Arizona. Must be nice in Oklahoma!
