| Note | From Rudene Graham, 3310 Stoney Brook, Houston, TX 77063 From Theola Baker, 164 Rube's Rd, Rose Bud, AR 72137 (501) 556-5443 6/8/96. !Frank Gann was born about four miles from Greenwood, AR in Bates Twp. 1870 Federal census, Sebastian Co. AR, lists name as Francis Marion Gann. 1920 census, Atoka Co. OK, lists name as Frank M. Gann. However, 1920 census has middle initial misplaced. The overwhelming evidence from public records is that Marion Francis Gann is the name he used throughout life. !Marriage record of M. F. Gann to M. F. Dooly on 26 June 1881 in Denton Co, TX. Recorded in Vol. 2, page 88 of county record book. Filed 4 July 1881 in County Clerk's office. Ceremony performed by Elder J.M. Robinson. !1860 Sebastian Co., AR, Bates Twp, Greenwood Post Office, p. 1087; age 1, enumerated with parents. 1870 Sebastian Co., AR, p. 083, Bates Twp. 1880 not located, 1900 Fannin Co. TX, E.D. 74, Sheet 9, Line 84. 1910 not located. 1920 Atoka Co. OK, E.D. 3, Sheet 13, Line 6. !Second marriage license obtained 15 Jan 1906. Ceremony performed 23 Jan. 1906 by T.P. Willingham M.G., credentials recorded Book A, page 218 in Clerk of Court's office, Indian Terr., Central District. Certificate of marriage filed 26 Jan 1906 in Book 3, page 171, at Wapanucka. !According to family remembrance, the couple did not live together very long, perhaps only 3-4 months. Not known whether legally divorced or just separated permanently. Peggy Wallis believed to be the mother of Alec (or Elic) Wallace/Wallis. !Marion Francis' occupation: Farmer. Also woodsman who felled trees near Stringtown, Atoka, OK, to be made into railroad ties. Family lived in a logging camp under canvas tenting as shelter. Later lived in sod house built into a hillside. During teenage years was a cowboy drover who herded cattle to market, as told to Wm. T. Walden, grandson. May have been a cowboy with cousin Geo. W. Gann of Greenwood AR who stayed in the occupation. !While moving the family to OK, the wagons hit quicksand in the Red River, overturned, and were swept away in the current. Several in the family almost lost their lives, according to W.T. Walden, as told to him by his mother and grandfather. |
