Delana E. Littlefield

Notes:

Barbara Cunningham, in her "Farris and Cunningham Family Ancestors" tree, posted at WorldConnect at Rootsweb, shows that Delana married Earnest PINNELL and second Sam BARTON. She also has a date of death as ca. 1930.

Melba McLemore shows the same two marriages, on 23 Sept 1917 to Earnest Clyde Pinnell, and on 26 May 1927 in Texas to Sammy Gilespy Barton. Melba has a much later date of death listed, however, that of March 1986.

I was not able to locate either Delana or Earnest Pinnell at the time of the 1920 census.

In 1930 Delana is shown with her second husband, S. Glispie BURTON, in Altus, Jackson County, Oklahoma (ED 33-2, SD 8, Sheet 1B, 720-17-17). He was listed as age 43, born in Texas to a father born in Missouri, and working as a carpenter. Delana is shown with the first initial E, age 39, and born in Texas. Children in the household are H. Lowell (son) age 17, Lenys (dtr) age 14, Davis (dtr?) age 12, and Margarett (dtr) age 2. The three oldest children were all born in Texas, perhaps by a prior marriage of Gillispie Burton's? Only daughter Margarett (age 2) was born in Oklahoma. Based on the date of marriage, only Margarett could have been a child of Delana's.

Delana married Earnest Clyde Pinnell on 23 Sep 1917. Earnest was born before 1890; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Delana married Sammy Gilespy Barton on 26 May 1927. Sammy was born about 1887 in Texas; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
