Hey all, I dug this watch fob/tag the other evening. There is early local history associated with the inscribed name.

Me too!  laughing7 Just kidding---Looks like you've got a good place to be detecting, Buckshot.  I can't tell what the first name is?  Mar? 
Did you know Franklin Revard(married to Romanzy) was an Indian Policeman? http://redoaktree.org/family/photos/t1395.htm  We've been doing some research on an old site we just found and think it might have belonged to the Revard family at one time-----The Revards have a lot of history here in the Osage.
  
That watch fob you found is such a great link to the past---I love finding something with someone's name on it!!  Way Cool!!!!

  Hey Carmon, The first name is Mark. I checked the link and believe it is Mark S. even though the fob is not inscribed as such b.1888-d.1946? WW1 vet. and an alotee. Yes, it is interesting to find items of local interest and then do the "history detective" searches for info. Thanks...
