Monogrammed Brick Stories

Brick: Lowe, Valerie T.

Contributed by Jackie Pogue

My mother was the fourth of six children born to a woman who, at 17, drove a wagon full of family possessions across the Red River from Texas to escape drought. She was the only one in her family to earn a college diploma. She loved her three daughters and became interested in researching her family history in later life. The Oklahoma Historical Society was a great resource for her search.

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.
