Vintage 2006 private family heritage cookbook titled "Sterling Family Cookbook: A Collection of Recipes by Descendants of Thomas E. Sterling." Published by Morris Press Cookbooks in Sulphur, Oklahoma.

Sterling (1858-1916), tracking his family's moves from Randolph County, Alabama to Sebastian County, Arkansas, and eventually to Indian Territory / Oklahoma around 1905. It lists a comprehensive family tree breakdown of contributors across generations of Sterling descendants (including the Loftis, Shelton, Black, Osteen, Matthews, Jennings, Hames, Miller, and Wilson lines).
