A granddaughter of Dora Owl Palmer, Barbara Vicknair, attended the 1975 reunion of the Owl family where approximately 200 descendents of Nettie and Solomon Owl gathered. Nettie and Solomon had 12 children - 8 boys and 4 girls. Neal Owl died in 1949 at the age of 47. All of the Owl children from Oklahoma attended the 1960 reunion except Theodore.
