I did see that on her SS death index card. I just have not found any first hand source such as a marriage license or a family Bible. I am not sure how accurate the maiden name is only because the children were young when Louisa died. My GG grandmother was Maud (sister of ruby) She was not aware of her mothers maiden name nor even her birthday before doing research in the 80's

You guys are amazing! Yes that is the right family.

Adolphus and Louisa (williams) McCarty were married in 1899. I can find no records to support this other then the 1900 Census saying they had been married about one year.

Ruby was either the youngest or second to youngest child based on what source I look at. Louisa died during childbirth and then Adolphus died shortly after.  I am most interested in finding the following:

1) marriage records for the couple
2) Death place. My grandma took her mother to many many graves looking for Adolphus and Louisa resting place. My grandma was not able to find where he was burried. Charmaine Keith seems to think he was buried at Coal Cem in Oklahoma but we could not find his stone nor was he one the list a caretaker kept.
3) Parents Of Louisa McCarty (williams)

Also I am not sure of the maiden name Williams. I have seen it many many places listed for Louisa but I have not come across an original source saying this is accurate.

My grandma recently did a Maternal line DNA test with Familytree DNA but we have no idea what it means LOL, interestingly though several of the matches have Williams in their family tree from Arkansas where we were told there was a grandmother that only one of the McCarty children was able to meet. We do not have any info on this women nor the dates when the visits were occurring.

Hi. My name is Christina. I am researching my Grandmothers side of the family. My grandmothers, grandma died when her mom was very young. Clear as mud? Yeah So Mary is my Grandma, her mother is Maud and her mother is Louisa. Louisa died when Maud was 5-7 years old (depending on death date given) We are trying to track Louisas family. We are able to track Louisas husband Adolphus family fairly far back. Louisa is a mystery women. Anyway I look forward to the interactions.
