Monogrammed Brick Stories
Brick: Hobbs, Dan S., Betty R.
Contributed by Stephen Hobbs
The Hobbs side of Dan's family relocated to western Oklahoma (Rocky/Cordell) from Arkansas around 1910, after previous generations moved west from Warren County, Tennessee. Dan Hobbs' mother was a Stewart, whose family started in a dugout in Washita County in 1894 just before the opening of the Cheyenne and Arapaho lands. He was one of eight siblings, all of whom valued education. Government administrators, teachers, professors, ministers, and the like can be counted among their extended families.

In 2012 the Oklahoma Historical Society invited those who purchased one of the monogrammed bricks paving the Red River Journey at the Oklahoma History Center to share about the person or group their brick honors. Below is a list of those who submitted stories and the message shown on their brick. Use the links below to read the contributed story.
This project was made possible by a generous donation from Catherine B. Wootten.
