(I always heard him referred to as Ed), His wife's name was Fannie Elizabeth. He was born in July 1883 in Mississippi. They were married in Upshur County, Texas in 1902. I found them in Oklahoma City, Okla. in the 1930 census. In the SS death index they had a James Stone that died in April 1971 in Oklahoma City, Okla. I am hoping that this is him. I do know that Fannie and James had 12 children in which there were 2 sets of twins. In the 1930 census it said that his occupation was that he owned a trucking business. I hope that this helps. I sure do want to find them. Fannie was my grandfather's sister."
