More than 10,000 prehistoric sites are recorded for the state, and they are estimated to represent about 10 percent of the actual number, according to archaeologist Don G. Wyckoff. Some of these sites pertain to the lives of Oklahoma’s original settlers—the Wichita and Caddo, and perhaps such relative latecomers as the Kiowa Apache, Osage, Kiowa, and Comanche. All of these sites comprise an invaluable resource for learning about Oklahoma’s remarkable and diverse The Clovis people lived Native American heritage. in Oklahoma at the Given the distribution and ages of studies sites, Okla- homa was widely inhabited during prehistory.

    ENROLLED SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION NO. 63 By: Ford, Stipe, Cain, Campbell, Capps, Coffee, Crutchfield, Douglass, Dunlap, Easley, Fair, Fisher, Haney, Harrison, Helton, Henry, Herbert, Hobson, Horner, Johnson, Kerr, Laughlin, Leftwich, Littlefield, Maddox, Martin, Mickle, Milacek, Monson, Morgan, Muegge, Nichols, Price, Pruitt, Rabon, Reynolds, Riley, Robinson, Rozell, Shurden, Smith, Snyder, Taylor, Wilcoxson, Wilkerson, Williams and Williamson of the Senate and Gray and Maddux of the House A Concurrent Resolution stating pride in the many accomplishments of Oklahoma’s Cartwright family; directing the Department of Central Services in cooperation with the Oklahoma Department of Libraries to prepare and show an exhibit recalling the Cartwright’s many contributions; and directing distribution. WHEREAS, the first famous American Cartwright was the Reverend Peter Cartwright (1785-1873), known as “God’s Plowman”. For more than 50 years he was the epitome of the Methodist circuit rider, receiving 10,000 members into the Methodist Church, personally baptizing 12,000, conducting over 500 funerals, and preaching more than 15,000 sermons. He once delivered a famous sermon to an audience which included General Andrew Jackson, during which Cartwright said, “If General Jackson doesn’t get his soul converted, God will damn him as quickly as anyone else”. Twice a member of the Illinois legislature, in 1846 he ran for the U.S. Congress but was defeated by Springfield lawyer Abraham Lincoln. Peter Cartwright was the great uncle of J.R. Cartwright, the patriarch of the Oklahoma Cartwrights; and WHEREAS, the Cartwright family came to Oklahoma in 1903 when it was still Indian Territory. Led by Jackson Robert (J.R.) Cartwright and his wife Emma, the family migrated from eastern Tennessee to near Wapanucka in the Chickasaw Nation.
