I grew up in Foraker and went to business college in Ponca City, I have been in the Marland Manison and it is beautiful. I am now so proud to say I live in Marrietta, Ok and we just built a church and in the church are the stained glass windows from the chapel and it means so much to me.

Marland Mansion
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/10/04
I live in Newkirk Oklahoma just north of Ponca about 15 miles. I have been at the Mansion several times, But I have never been inside of the Mansion.

Hopefully I will get to explore the mansion soon. But just the pond and the yard area is worth looking at.

My Mother and I visited the Marland Mansion in May of 2004, and I didn't think I was going to enjoy the tour, but I loved it and came away with a sense of respect for what E.W. had gone through and also for what he had lost. It was thrilling to be in such a grand home and to imagine the happy times for him and his family and friends, I would go again anytime. D.G.
