Four children, Alta, Charles, Samuel and Goerge came with their parents to Oklahoma.....and all of them died and buried in Oklahoma, except Samuel, I do not know where he was. Anyone can tell me about them. I know their daughter, Alta married to Oliver H. Harris. and they had two daughters, Jennie and Josie. Appreciation with your help me....
