Thomas James met and married Finette Howard in Lehigh, Coal County, OK in 1892 and they moved to Roger Mills Co>Pottowattomi Co>Murphy Co (Sulphur) > Osage Co, all in OK. I do wonder where your Glenn's parents came from, though, who they were and if they came from IA, too. You may hold a key. Hope to hear from you…. Tom Howell
