I had the same problem when I responded to you. My grandmother, Julia Frances (Hartless) Lovelace was in Canadian Township, Cleveland County, Oklahoma for the 1900 census. My uncle George Talbert, and my grandfather Samuel were living at home. Julia was in Murray County on the 1910 census. She died in 1919 in Blythe, Riverside County, California. My grandparents, Samuel and Dovie, had twin daughters who were born (and later died) in McClain County in 1909. On the 1910 census they were found in Township No. 09 South, Range No. 01 East (northeast of Red River) in Cleveland County. This is where my uncle William was born in 1912. In 1913, my aunt Virginia was born in Pueblo, Pueblo County, Colorado. After my father was born in Noble in 1914, they moved to California, where they are found on the 1920 census in Palo Verde Township, Riverside County, California. By 1922 they were back in Oklahoma, where my aunt Thelma was born in Noble. In 1923 they returned to California to stay. My aunt Rose was married in 1898 (I do not know where as I have not been able to locate a marriage record for her, but it was probably in the Territory) and her oldest daughter was born in Noble in 1899. After being listed on his mother's census in 1900, I cannot find my uncle George Talbert until he takes up semi-permanent residence in Brentwood, Contra Costa County, California in 1923. My best guess as to when Julia sold the homestead is between 1900 and 1909. If my grandfather every talked about why and when the property was sold, it was before I was old enough to remember it. After my grandmother's death, he never talked about his childhood life. -- Jack D. Lovelace
