RED OAK — Search efforts for a family missing for two weeks in rural Latimer County got off to a slow start this morning due to muddy mountain road conditions.

Latimer County Sheriff Israel Beauchamp said searchers are trying to get as much done today as possible, because the roads and conditions are only going to get worse.

"This is the probably the last day we're doing to do this for a while," he said.

The search for Bobby and Sherrilynn Jamison and their daughter Madyson, 6, has been under way since a hunter found their pickup on Oct. 9, about 30 miles from the family's Eufaula home. Beauchamp said the family had gone to look at two 40-acre plots of land for possible purchase and had plans to move a shipping container onto some rural land and make a home out of it.

That is some pretty rough country around Red Oak,they could have come upon someones dope patch, or meth lab, But this weekend Black powder deer season starts, and maybe those hills will be combed by hunters.The game rangers should know the locals and the terrain, anybody squealing about trespassers may have something to hide.
