November of 1893, the grand daughter of John S. Hogan. She is also listed in
Neosho County with her mother Ora Hogan and her stepfather Alfred Hibbs. She

He is 19 AR born in March 1881
and living with William T. Clark. He may be a son of Reding Putman, son of

find a reference that he is in Payne County Oklahoma in 1920 at age 78 NY. So
