David, I checked all the Manning families indexed in 1910 McLennan County, and none of them had sons with any of these names. I also checked all the white (per the 1930 census) Manning families indexed in 1900 McLennan County in case the brothers were older than Roland and born prior to the 1900 census, but nothing there either. There are almost 200 Mannings indexed in 1910 Texas who indicate born in TX (per the 1930 census), and I am sorry that I am not able to check other counties. What is shown on his death certificate for the names of his parents? Sorry not to be able to help.

Sylvia, This family is indexed (every-name) at Ancestry as Kristian (written over and unreadable), Licatter, and Sima. Thinking it was not the correct family, I went to the 1910 OK census and found that Leeta's parents were born in Alabama, and because the above Licatter's parents were also, this must be the family you are looking for. After doing the transcript, I checked at Heritage Quest and see that they indexed the HOH as Greshim, so believe this one to be correct. 1900 Wise County, Texas - Voting Precinct 5 - June 18, 1900 - ED 137/Sheet 8A/Page 65 135 - Yeagar, Gresham, head; Dec 1875, age 24; married/2 years; TX AL AL; day labor; renting house Leatter, wife; Apr 1880, age 20; married/2 years; 1 child/1 living; TX AL AL Sima, dau; Jun 1899 11? months; born TX Good luck!
