• Notes

  George is 38 and Betty Clay is only 20. I suspect his middle initial is for Wade. It appears that he married previously to Gertrude Potter in Okmulgee Co, in 1922. He may also have married a Beulah in 1903 and had a daughter, Edith. It appears he and Gertrude and he and Betty had no children. In 1930, he is listed as a widower in the census and is single. He may also have been enrolled in the Dawes Roll. He likely died in 1943.
