Wanted:Young God-fearing wife
BY ANDREW GRIFFIN

BRAY, OK — Standing on a dirt drive leading
to his small home off of Medcalf Road
near Bray, Michael Thelemann says the
all the media attention regarding his quest for a
wife — calls from as far away as Dallas and New
York — has kept him busy over the past few days,
but it has also made him more desirous of finding
a virginal, young, God-fearing woman.
Rather than place an ad in a newspaper or on an
Internet site, the Stephens County man placed a
sign in front of his property earlier this week, offering
anyone $1,000 if they would help him find
a bride, preferably young, even as young as 12.
This proposal, however, has not gone over well
with his neighbors, many of whom have young,
unmarried daughters of their own.
Hoping to wed soon, the bearded man, sporting
a pearl-snap shirt and brimmed hat, stood by his
unusual request.
“It’s the right time and God’s been preparing
me,” Thelemann said, adding that he’s more flexible
on the age requirements now.
While that original sign is gone, believed to
have been stolen, a new sign placed out by the
roadside reads: “Do Not Need a Non-Church Going
White Supremist (sic) Bride From Accusing
Heathen Pig Worshipping Parients (sic). God is
Good.” There is no mention of a particular age requirement
on the new sign.
Still, neighbors in this rural corner of Stephens
County, between Lake Humphreys and Clear
Creek Lake, are concerned that Thelemann may
be coming for their daughters and cite instances
when he has allegedly peeked in windows and approached
people offering them $100 for a girlbride
as young as 9 years old.
Concerned mother Jamie Tilghman, who lives
just yards from Thelemann’s property, said the
former lawn care specialist is well-known in the
area for being a bit odd but mostly harmless. But
his latest request “has everyone furious.”
“There are a lot people laughing about it, but
This is the first sign he posted that was taken down...

in front of his property, the first having disappeared
following negative publicity.
