Notes - Anthony Hendricks O'Brate, son of Lawrence and Leona O'Brate, was born in Rush County, Kansas on Sept 26, 1886. When he was six years of age, his father and uncle made the run in the Cherokee Strip opening and staked a claim northwest of Enid, Oklahoma for the family. They followed by covered wagon a short time later. He was educated in a country school near the family home. On October 5, 1907, he was united in marriage to Sarah "Sadie" Elizabeth Payne, a former classmate. The family lived and farmed near Enid until 1944 when the family moved to a farm near Syracuse, Kansas. They later moved into Syracuse where on November 28, 1955, his wife died. In 1956 he married Hazel Reed Ogden, family friend of many years. They resided in Syracuse until his death November 24, 1970. Because of ill health, both he and his wife have been patients of a rest home the past seven years. According to his philosophy of life---tranquility, simplicity, kindness, patience, and generosity were supreme qualities. Surviving him are his wife, Hazel, of Donohue Memorial Rest Home; a daughter, Helen Elizabeth Christiansen of Lycan, Colorado; five sons, Larry of Bowie, Maryland; Howard of Pueblo, Colorado; and Elmer, Glen and Merrill, all of Syracuse; three step-daughters, (Living) Eastman of El Cajon, California; Mrs. Jessie Mae Ashley of Phoenix, Arizona; and Mrs. Lucille Hart of San Diego; a step-son, Norval Ogden of Imperial Beach, California; 13 grandchildren, 30 step-grandchildren, and one great great grandchild, 18 step-grandchildren, several nieces and nephews and many, many friends.
