With Part 5 of this series we proved that LeFlore County still owned the old roadway right of way immediately south of the Ellison property.  We also demonstrated that anyone claiming to privately own that piece of land is a liar.  With Part 6, we are now going to expose the liars, frauds and thieves that attempted to steal not only the county right-of-way but also a portion of Barbara Ellison's property.

First, Let's Have A History 101 Lesson

We really do not have to go back very far in time, only twenty-five years or so.   That's when what is now the Barbara Ellison property was created by selling off a portion of what was then the much larger Hines property.  In January, 1980 Richard Dee Hines and wife Molly Ann Jones Hines sold two adjacent tracts of land as a single parcel to Henry and Dorothy Jo Jackson.  The first of the two adjacent tracts was 1.0004 acre in size, the second smaller tract was .1504 acre in size.  The detailed legal description of this land is available from the Hines to Jackson deed which we are making available here as Reference 58.  Please take the time to examine that document, paying close attention to the legal description of the property being transferred from the Hines to Jacksons because you are going to see a lot of it.

In August, 1983, the Jacksons sold the property to Harold J. Cox.   The detailed legal description of the property sold by the Jacksons to Cox is identical to the detailed legal description of the property the Jacksons purchased from the Hines.  Please take a moment to verify this for yourself as we are making the Jackson to Cox deed available here as Reference 59

For reasons unknown, Harold J. Cox and his wife Mary Cox sold the same property back to the Jacksons only a month later, in September, 1983.  Here again we encourage you to examine the detailed legal description of the property sold by the Coxes back to the Jacksons as we are making the Cox back to Jacksons deed available as Reference 60. The detailed legal description of the property has not changed one iota.

In July, 1992 Dorothy Jo Jackson and the other Jackson heirs sold the property to Bobby and Betty Burr.  The detailed legal description of the property is listed in the Jackson to Burr deed which we are making available here as Reference 61.  An examination of this deed reveals the property continues to be the same identical property which the Jacksons purchased from the Hines back in January 1980.   Please take a moment to confirm this for yourself by examining the deed.

In November, 1995 the Burrs sold the property to Bobby and Cynthia Elmore.   Please confirm that the detailed legal description is identical to that in each of the property sales and deeds referenced above.  The Burr to Elmore deed is available here as Reference 62.

In June, 1999 Cynthia Elmore then a single person sold the property to its current owner Barbara Ellison.  The Elmore to Ellison deed is available here as Reference 63.   Please take the time to examine that deed, compare it to all the other deeds referenced above and the conclusion is inescapable.  What is now the Ellison property has not changed one iota since the property was originally sold by the Hines to the Jacksons way back in 1980.

The property still consists of two adjacent tracts of land, the larger 1.0004 acre in size and the smaller being a .1504 acre tract.  They are both still there, they are both still adjacent and they are both still part of the same parcel of land sold by the Hines back in 1980.  Nothing has changed except ownership through the chain of sales/deeds referenced above.   Facts are facts and the facts in the scenario are irrefutable.  The fact is that today Barbara Ellison owns the very same parcel of land consisting of the very same two adjacent tracts that the Hines sold to the Jacksons 25 years ago.   Two tracts of land which abut the county owned right-of-way along the south boundary of the Ellison property, as was pointed out by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission and the attorney for Oklahoma Western Telephone Company and which we covered in detail in Part 5.

Next, Let's Take A Look At Some Thievery

In our history lesson above it was pointed out that what is now the Ellison property came into existence when Richard Dee Hines sold a parcel of land in the form of two tracts to the Jacksons.  For over fourteen years the Hines property surrounded on three sides the two tract parcel Hines sold to the Jacksons.   A two tract parcel that passed through a chain of owners and was in 1994 the property of the Burrs.

In the autumn of 1994 the Hines property was in the hands of the Richard Dee Hines heirs.  Collectively the Hines heirs participated in a land fraud with Louis N. (Neal) White.  Whether the Hines heirs or Neal White knowingly or unknowingly, willingly or unwillingly participated in this land fraud is unknown to this writer.  What is known and what we will prove here is that land fraud was committed.  The victims of that land fraud were the Burrs, and subsequently the Elmores and ultimately Barbara Ellison, as the fraud continues to this day.

To understand the scope of this land fraud one must keep in mind the full legal description of the two tract parcel sold by Hines to Jackson in 1980 and which flowed through a continuous chain of ownership until ultimately becoming the property of Barbara Ellison in June, 1999.  To make it easy for our readers we have provided the exact and complete description here in the form of a graphic extracted directly for the Hines to Jackson deed.  Please feel free to compare this extract to the property description in any of the six deeds listed in the brief history lesson above.

What follows is the full legal description of the land sold by the Hines heirs to Neal White in the autumn of 1994:

The key aspects of the description of the property involved in the Hines heirs to Neal White sale are those phrases immediately following the word 'LESS'.   What the description is saying is the property being sold is such and such excluding the property described immediately following the word LESS.  For example, notice the word 'LESS' followed by the phrase 'the North 5 acres'.  This means that the Hines heirs are acknowledging they are NOT selling the north 5 acres to Neal White as that portion of the original Hines land did not belong to them.

Also notice there is a second 'LESS' included in the description, specifically the larger tract sold by Hines to Jackson in 1980.  A comparison of the two descriptions above reveals they are identical concerning the larger tract.  Therefore the Hines heirs are acknowledging they are NOT selling that tract, as it had been previously sold and during 1994 belonged to the Burrs.

Now, did you notice what was not mentioned in the context of an exclusionary 'LESS' in the Hines heirs to Neal White sale?

If you answered the .1504 acre tract which in 1994 legally belonged to the Burrs not the Hines heirs you are right.

In the transaction between the Hines heirs and Neal White, the smaller tract of the Burr property was fraudulently and illegally sold to Neal White although in reality it belonged to the Burrs, just as it had to every other owner of the two tract parcel originally sold by Hines to Jackson and today belonging to Barbara Ellison.

Least there be any doubt regarding what we have shown here we are making available the three Quitclaim Deeds signed by the Hines heirs transferring both the property they legally owned and the then Burr owned smaller tract to Neal White.

The first such Quitclaim Deed was signed by Alan and Teresa Hines in August, 1994.   It is available here as Reference 64.

The second Quitclaim Deed was signed by Carol A. Martin in September, 1994.   It is available here as Reference 65.

The third Quitclaim Deed was signed by Candice Hines in November, 1994.   It is available here as Reference 66

Please take the time to examine each of the Quitclaim Deeds referenced above to confirm we have accurately presented the details of the property description and exclusionary 'LESS' statements we have listed above.

These Quitclaim Deeds were executed without the knowledge or consent of the Burrs, the rightful owners of the .1504 acre tract at the time the fraud took place.   The existence of these Quitclaim Deeds was unknown to the Elmores when they purchased the property from the Burrs and was unknown to Cynthia Elmore when she legally sold the two tract parcel to Barbara Ellison in June, 1999.   Their existence was discovered by Barbara Ellison only after other persons attempted to seize control of portions of Ellison's property, basing their false claim on a fraudulent chain of ownership predicated in part upon these fraudulent Quitclaim Deeds.

It can not be any clearer.

Between August, 1994 and November, 1994 the smaller tract of the then Burr property was fraudulently and illegally sold by the Hines heirs to Neal White.   This of course raises serious questions.  Were the Hines heirs behind the land fraud?  Or was Neal White the culprit, convincing the Hines heirs to sell a tract of land they did not own but thought they did?   Or were they all part of a conspiracy to steal a small tract of land?   Without regard to the culprit or culprits, there was a crime committed.   This writer has no idea of the identity of the guilty party or parties and therefore makes no claim in that regard  The only means to determine the guilty party or parties is a full-scale investigation to get to the bottom of this land fraud which victimized the Burrs, the Elmores and Barbara Ellison, who to this day is being victimized by a criminal act committed in 1994.  Such an investigation is not only called for but fully within the realm of possibilities owing to the fact that the ticking clock on the statute of limitations starts with the discovery of the crime, not its commission.

An Illegal Land Grab Gets A Judge's Blessing

As was pointed out in the brief history lesson above, in November, 1995 the Burrs sold their two tract property to the Elmores.  This sale took place one year after the smaller Burr tract had been fraudulently transferred to Neal White.  White would wait another year before attempting to consolidate his false claim to the smaller tract of the then Elmore property.

He began the process by filing a petition for a Quiet Title to the property he had purchased from the Hines heirs, including the smaller tract of land which had been fraudulently transferred.  We are making a copy of this Quiet Title Petition available here as Reference 67.

This petition named numerous defendants including government entities and county officials, Hines heirs and family members as well as a previous owner of what was the Hines property.  In filing such a petition White was attempting to eliminate all current and future claims against the property he purchased both legally and illegally from the Hines heirs; claims that not only might arise from Hines family members but also various governmental offices on the basis of taxes and or liens against the property.  White did not name as defendants either the Burrs or Elmores.  Had he done so it would have tipped them off to the existence of a fraudulent claim against what was the Burr property at the time of the Quitclaim Deeds and the Elmore property at the time of the filing of the Quiet Title petition.

The Neal White Quiet Title petition was both flawed and fraudulent.

Since a Quiet Title was being sought on a portion of the then Elmore property the failure to include the Elmores as defendants deprived them of their day in court to contest the claim against their property, the smaller of the two tracts that they purchased from the Burrs.  The Elmores were deprived of justice and their constitutional rights were violated when they were excluded by the Neal White petition.

The first paragraph and cause for action in the Neal White petition is as follows:



Clearly we know this statement is false as at the time the petition was filed the Elmores were the owners of a portion of the property which White was claiming.   Between the time of obtaining the Quitclaim Deeds from the Hines heirs and the filing of the petition for a Quiet Title, Neal White had two years to go to the LeFlore County Courthouse and examine land and tax records to determine the legitimacy of the claims he was making.  Obviously he either did not do so or if he did then he opted to ignore reality and the rights of the Elmores in filing this petition.

The ninth paragraph and cause for action in the Neal White petition is as follows:



This paragraph contains two falsehoods.  First, Neal White is making a false statement in that the property described in Paragraph 1 of the petition is his.  As we have seen above, time and time again, a portion of the property at issue belonged to the Elmores.  Secondly, the statement that the property at issue is subject to a continuous chain of title for longer than fifteen years is patently false.  Over the 15 years prior to the filing of the Neal White petition, the smaller Elmore tract had been owned by four different parties, one of whom owned it twice, for a total of five breaks in the alleged 'continuous chain of title'.

The tenth paragraph of the Neal White petition states in part:



Paragraph 10 goes on to list various government entities and officials and the Hines heirs.  It makes no mention of the Burrs or the Elmores.

What the plaintiff knew is of course unknown to this writer.   However what he should have known had he actually engaged in the alleged 'due diligence and after due inquiry, search and investigation' is very clear.   In multiple offices of the LeFlore County Courthouse were official deeds, tax assessments, mortgages and other official documents which clearly revealed the exact nature of not only the property Neal White legally bought from the Hines heirs but also the exact nature of the property owned by the Elmores, property which Neal White fraudulently claimed in this Quiet Title petition.   It doesn't take a genius to go to the courthouse and conduct a simple inquiry into land records.  Anyone can do it.  And as we have demonstrated here, copies of such documents can be easily obtained.   When the truth is so easy to obtain why would an honest person not take the few simple steps necessary to obtain it?

On March 7, 1997 a hearing on the Neal White petition was held in LeFlore County District Court with District Judge Ted Knight presiding.  We are making available here a copy of the Journal Entry from that hearing as Reference 68.  Judge Knight found the Neal White petition sufficient and in his Journal Entry ruled that the named defendants had been served sufficient notice of the proceedings, and were in default.  Judge Knight ruled that the defendants, their heirs and successors were forever barred and enjoined from filing any claim against the property.  Of course Judge Knight did not and could not bar or enjoin non-defendants from exercising their legal rights to property which they lawfully owned.  At the time of Judge Knight's ruling the Elmores still owned a two tract parcel, which was eventually sold to Barbara Ellison, who still owns a two tract parcel today in spite of the fraudulent claim by Neal White.

In looking back at Judge Knight's acceptance as fact the false claims made in the Neal White petition one can not ignore the possibility that had Judge Knight simply walked about the same courthouse where he presided and looked at a few deeds, tax assessments and other documents the scandal that is The Fence of LeFlore County could have been avoided.  That he chose not to do so is clearly within both his rights and powers.  Judges are not required to investigate, inquire or search for the truth.  They are only required to abide by the law and judge the case on its merits as presented to them.  This writer does not know if Judge Knight was aware that the Neal White Quiet Claim petition was fraudulent.  However, now we all know that it was.  Even at this point in time Judge Knight has the power and authority to remedy the injustice which took place in his courtroom.   Whether he has the honesty, integrity and courage to do so is solely at Judge Knight's discretion.

The Signatures Tell the Tale and It's Not Pretty. But It Is Revealing.

Having consummated the quieting of the title to both the former Hines property and the stolen portion of the Elmore property, Neal White was content to bide his time.   Two uneventful years passed and in June, 1999 Barbara Ellison purchased the then Elmore property and received the deed to the parcel containing two tracts, the larger 1.0004 acre tract and the .1504 acre tract.  We know the two tract Elmore parcel was still intact on the basis of the Elmore deed and a series of mortgages on the property.  Mortgages which clearly spelled out the exact description of the property.  One such mortgage was with Poteau, OK attorney Belva Barber, available here as Reference 21.   On February 1, 1999 Lawyer Barber signed a release of that mortgage and in that release once again the Elmore property is fully described.  That document is available here as Reference 22.   The first mortgage on the Elmore property and its ultimate release also confirm the exact details of the property revealing it to consist of the same two tracts the Elmores purchased from the Burrs.  We are making that mortgage release available here as Reference 69.

As Neal White was biding his time, in February, 2000, something unexpected happened.  Neal White died.   Following close upon White's death a series of events was set in motion.   Events which culminated in The Fence of LeFlore County and the resulting scandal.

The first significant event following the death of Neal White involved the very belated filing of a Quitclaim Deed purportedly signed by Neal White on August 14, 1997 and transferring property to his son Rubin White.   The Quitclaim Deed was notarized by Wanda J. White, Neal White's ex-wife and Rubin White's ex-step-mother.  This Quitclaim Deed was filed in the LeFlore County Courthouse on March 20, 2000, two years and seven months after Neal White purportedly signed it and less than one month after his death.   We are making a copy of this Quitclaim Deed available here as Reference 70.

Owing to the exceedingly long time delay between Neal White's purported signing of this document, his death and the quitclaim being filed we at Bubbaworld felt it might be interesting to compare the signature on the Neal White to Rubin White Quitclaim Deed to any other official document we could find bearing Neal White's signature. As luck would have it we already had such a document containing Neal White's signature.  That official document is of course Neal White's Quiet Title Petition which he filed in 1996 and which was covered above and is available here as Reference 67.

So how about a little 'do it yourself' comparison of the two signatures?   Clicking on either signature below will open a new window and display the full document.  Please take a long hard look at both signatures and decide for yourself if they are or are not the same.

Everyone associated with Bubbaworld, after having seen these two signatures, came to a consensus of 'You've got to be kidding!  They are not even slightly similar, let alone the same.'.  Of course, no one associated with Bubbaworld makes any claim to being qualified in analyzing handwriting.  But we do know of someone who is.   That someone would be Kenneth John Davies, the Founding Director of Hawkeye Studios, Grapho-Lab Services in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.  Mr. Davies' summary of qualifications is being made available here as Reference 71.

In January, 2004 Mr. Davies performed an expert analysis of various documents at the request of Barbara Ellison.  Among those documents were the purported Neal White to Rubin White Quitclaim Deed as well as other documents in the handwriting of and bearing the signature of Neal White and Wanda J. White.  On January 30, 2004 Mr. Davies issued his official report revealing his conclusions.  The following is the conclusion of Mr. Davies expert analysis:

We are making available here a complete copy of Mr. Davies five page report as  Reference 72.

The eleven 'exhibits' used by Mr. Davies in arriving at his expert opinion are being made available here in the form of a single zip file which may be downloaded by Clicking Here.   Please be forewarned, the file of exhibits is in excess of 3.5 megabytes in size and will take considerable time to download via a regular dial-up connection.

In light of Mr. Davies findings it is reasonable to question the implications of the land transfers that have occurred following Neal White's death.   What effect would a forged quitclaim deed have on the subsequent sale of the property?  If one obtains property by forged quitclaim deed how could they legally mortgage or sell the property?  Would not doing so be a criminal offense in and of itself?  And what about the person that purchases land which came into the seller's possession by way of a forged quitclaim deed?  Can they legally purchase, possess or mortgage property under such conditions?   For doing so would they be considered criminals or victims of a crime?   Certainly the implications of such a forged quitclaim deed are vast and complex.

One can only speculate upon why when Barbara Ellison raised these issues with former District Attorney Rob Wallace and subsequently with current District Attorney Farley Ward neither saw fit to initiate an investigation in spite of the evidence clearly justifying one.  In her most recent attempt to bring about an investigation, Ellison mailed a large packet of information, documents and other evidence to District Attorney Farley Ward in January, 2005.   The Certified Mail Receipt for which we are making available here as Reference 73.

In repeated telephone followups to her correspondence to DA Ward, Barbara Ellison was told by staffers in the DA's office and once by District Attorney Ward himself that he would be getting in touch with her shortly via letter, to inform her of his decision in the matter.  Here it is October and Ellison is still waiting on that letter from DA Ward.  Just how long does it take Farley Ward to compose a letter?  Speculation here at Bubbaworld is that it may take until after the statute of limitations expires.

Is Anyone Willing to Acknowledge the Truth?:

With two districts attorney, most LeFlore County officials, several courthouse employees and a portion of LeFlore County residents evidently hoping to ignore this scandal long enough for it to go away the question arises, 'Is there anyone in LeFlore County willing to acknowledge the truth regarding Barbara Ellison's property and the fraudulent attempts to seize a part of it?'

A few have gone on record in support of the truth.  The following is a sampling of acknowledgements of the truth by various companies and individuals:

First, there's the 'Abstract of Title #49524' by Adams Abstract Company of Poteau, OK which we are making available here as Reference 74.

Then there's a title report from Buffalo Land Abstract Company, which we are making available here as Reference 75.

This document contains a very interesting notation near the bottom.   We are providing an extract of that notation below.

"Encroaches the access easement of Ellison's property".  What could be clearer?

When Barbara Ellison complained to the Oklahoma State Banking Department about her neighbors mortgaging a portion of her property and the county owned right-of-way the State Banking Department contacted the bank holding the mortgage for an explanation.  In reply to that query the bank submitted a letter to the State Banking Department detailing the bank's position.  The State Banking Department made a copy of that letter available to Barbara Ellison and we are making a copy available here as Reference 76.   The colored highlighting denotes particular items of interest in this letter.

Here are direct quotes of those items of interest:

The attorney does describe an easement across this property, West of the store, that is owned by Barbara Ellison.

We chose not to release our surface lien on property she or the county have an easement across.

I will consider any offer toward a certain payment amount for a partial release.

In this letter the bank's officials admit that not only does Barbara Ellison own a portion of the land on which it holds a lien, but that it also holds a lien on county land.  Since when could banks impose a lien on private property without the owner's consent? Or for that matter, when can a bank impose a lien on county property without anyone's consent?  Of course the bank's officers were willing to release these liens for anyone willing to pay them off.  This of course raises the question, 'Is this extortion or normal banking procedures?'.  When I asked these questions of my banker he replied, "You have got to be kidding.  Right?".   But what would he know?  He only works for one of the largest banks in the United States.

Then there's these statements from previous owners of what is now the Barbara Ellison property.

A handwritten statement by Molly Ann Hines (now Woods) made available here as Reference 77

A statement by Betty Burr made available here as Reference 78

And a statement by Cynthia Elmore made available here as Reference 79

Each of these former owners of what is now the Ellison property describes it exactly the same at the time they sold it.  Of course Cynthia Elmore sold the property to Barbara Ellison in 1999.  The Ellison property is today identical to the property which Richard Dee and Molly Hines sold to the Jacksons back in 1980.  No amount of illegal land grabs, fraudulent quitclaim deeds or quiet titles can alter that truth.

On 10/26/05 Barbara Ellison pointed out in an e-mail that I had failed to include a copy of the White to Wolfe deed as a reference to this, Part 6.   A deed which fraudulently included both Ellison's smaller tract and the county right-of-way.  We are providing a copy of that document here as Reference 80

This deed is interesting in a couple of respects.

First, if the handwriting expert referenced above is correct, Rubin White never owned the land he sold to Barbara Ellison's neighbors.  If he never owned it, he could not legally sell it and Ellison's neighbors can not own it now as they did not purchase it from Neal White.

The second interesting aspect of this deed is, that even if it were legitimate, it expressly states the following:

warrant the title to the same excepting any right of way and easements of record and/or in use

If this deed were legitimate, through the use of the word 'excepting', it expressly excludes both any claim to the county right-of-way as well as any easement.  Therefore the fact remains that the Fence of LeFlore County, Oklahoma was constructed on land not included in the White to Wolfe deed.

In putting together Part 6 of The Fence of LeFlore County, Oklahoma I was struck by the weight of the evidence.  Sure I had seen all of it months ago, but in a piecemeal fashion.  As this part of the series came together first in storyboard form and later in initial drafts the enormity and consistency of the collected evidence was remarkable.  For over twenty-five years what is now the Ellison property has remained the same through multiple owners.   Each and every deed, as the property changed hands, contained an identical description, always two tracts, always with a larger 1.0004 and a smaller .1504 acre tract comprising the parcel, always the same measurements, always the same geographic starting and ending locations.  Nothing changed for all these years.

That the property was under siege, first in 1994, then in 1996 and subsequently in the years 2000 and 2003, was unknown to the property's legitimate owners.   Like thieves in the night those that were intent on stealing first the Burr land, then the Elmore land and most recently the Ellison land were, like all evil-doers, afraid of doing their wickedness in public view where their intended victims would be aware of their heinous actions.

That the Hines heirs or Neal White or a combination of the several of them were thieves, either knowingly or unknowingly is inescapable.  The evidence we have presented here is overwhelming and irrefutable.  We at Bubbaworld can not name the guilty party from the evidence we have available.   The culprit or culprits will only be known after a full-scale, fair and through investigation is conducted.

We at Bubbaworld can not say with certainty whose hand signed the Neal White signature to the Quitclaim Deed transferring his property to his son.   An internationally recognized handwriting expert says in his professional opinion it was not the hand of Neal White but rather that of White's ex-wife that placed the signature on that document.  We have provided two examples of Neal White signatures, one from a court document which he personally submitted to the District Court of LeFlore County.  The other from a Quitclaim Deed that surfaced only after his death.  In our opinion the two signatures are as different as night and day.  However, the only way the absolute truth will be known is after a full-scale, fair and through investigation is conducted.

That Farmers State Bank is holding a lien in the name of Ellison's neighbors but on a portion of Ellison's property as well as a portion of county right-of-way is without question.  That the bank's officers admitted as much in a letter to the State Banking Department is without question.  One needs only look at the letter to see it.  That the bank's officers indicated they might be willing to release the lien against Ellison's property 'for a price' smacks of extortion.  In our opinion, the entire letter from the bank to the State Banking Department smacks of arrogance arising not from knowing one is in the right but rather from knowing one is a part of the good ol' boy network and therefore above the law of us mere mortals.

Barbara Ellison has brought evidence of land theft, fraud and forgery to two different Districts Attorney.  She handed them a ready-made case.   One which they would only need to check the original documents in their own courthouse to confirm the allegations.  Yet neither District Attorney was interested.  One can only speculate as to why both would refuse to do their duty.  Were they both afraid of rocking the boat?   Would an honest investigation prove embarrassing to them or possibly their friends and/or associates?  Are a few, some or most of the culprits in this scandal part of the LeFlore County Good Ol' Boy Network?  Or is it just a matter of worthless districts attorney?  No matter what the reason, the fact is that thus far two districts attorney sworn to uphold the law have grossly failed to do so in spite of overwhelming evidence of crimes being committed.

As long as persons claiming adjacent property are allowed to secretly mortgage the property of their neighbors, no one in LeFlore County can say for certain their property is free from mortgage or for that matter that it hasn't been fraudulently transferred to their neighbors.

Unless and until folks such as Barbara Ellison can live their lives in peace, secure in their property and safe in their own homes there is no justice in LeFlore County, Oklahoma.  Until the good people of LeFlore County develop the backbone to stand up for what is right and rebuke the scoundrels, the thieves, the liars, the frauds and the good ol' boys that protect them, no one there is safe from having their property stolen and/or mortgaged right out from under them.

Residents of LeFlore County, you have a choice.
On the one hand you can demand justice here and now.
Or you can continue living with the danger of thieves in the night.
It really is your choice to make.
