bullet  Marriage Notes:

Lillon Lightfoot and Ivan Fox were married sometime before 1910 most likely in Missouri but no license or registration has yet been located. Their first 4 children were all born in Jasper County, Missouri and then about 1919 then family moved to Pincher, Ottawa County, Oklahoma where their next 3 children were born.

They both remained in Oklahoma. Lillon died relatively young at the age of 46 and was buried back in his home area of Jasper County, Missouri. Ivan lived another 41 years apparently remaining in Oklahoma until her death in 1975. She was then buried alongside her husband back in Jasper County, Missouri.
