In the 1900 Chickasaw Nation census, two children are reported born in Arkansas, Henry in 1885 and Oscar (Ossie) in 1887. Note that the census reports Ossie was born in Arkansas, but at age 20, it would place his birth in 1890 or 1898, not 1887. The Borens probably moved to Indian Territory via Arkansas. I have not found any further information on their short time in Arkansas.
Note also that William's grandchildren were born in Arkansas, between 1894 and 1902.
