The rest of the nine children lived to be married and rear families of their own.

George and Maude reared their family in the Lone Oak area. They lived on a farm and worked hard to raise a large family and shared many hours of happiness, along with all the sorrows, of raising a family of nine. Maude (mother) died in 1918 at the age of forty. At this time there were nine children left and the family continued to struggle and rear the children. George (father) died in 1935 at the age 63. The children continued living in and around Lone Oak Community until 1940. At that time Susie, Nettie, Woodrow, and Edna moved to Imperial Valley, California, to find work. All nine children married residents except Susie and Woodrow. They married California residents.
