Notes

  • 1900 Federal Census, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory, 25 June, Township 4 North Range East, District 102, page 12B, Hse/Fam #207
    Mullins, Lindsey C Head  W M Apl 1877 23 married 3 years  GA GA SC Farmer Rents
    Mullins, Tillie S  Wife W F Febry 1882 18 married 3 yrs 2 children/2 living TX KY KY

    Mullins, Ida May  W F May 1900 1  Single Ind Terr GA TX
    Mullins, Mary E  Grand Mother W F Nov 1818 81 Widow 4 children/3 living NC VA SC

    His name on his grave is spelled Linzey.  This is the only documentation I have seen that might be from the famly themselves.  This may be the way they spelled it.  But on his WWI draft registration, he himself signed his name as Lindsey, the standard spelling of the name.

    I have not been able to find a census listing for Lindsey in 1910.  By September 1918, Lindsey and Tillie are living in De Baca County, New Mexico, where he registered for the World War I draft.

    Birth 22 May 1875 [place of birth not stated on this form]
    Race White
    Residence Ritchey, De Baca County, New Mexico
    Occupation Stock Farmer
    Medium Height and Build
    Gray Eyes, Black Hair
    Nearest Relative, May Tilley Mullins, Ritchey, De Baca, New Mexico
    Registration 12 Sept 1918 in De Baca, New
    Signed Lindsey Car [sic] Mullins

    Note that the name Lindsey gives for his wife here is May Tilley Mullins.  Family information from the compilation of Mike Taylor reports her name as Susie Tilley Gordon Mullins.  This is the name Mike reports from Oklahoma marriage records.  We saw in the 1900 census that Tillie was reported as TIllie S.  This also occurs in 1930.  In 1920, the census records Lindsey and his family in Richey.

    1920 Federal Census, De Baca County, New Mexico, [no date] January, Ritchey Precinct 10, District 58, page 5A, Hse #54, Fam #55

    Mullins, William C  Son M W 8 Single OK GA TX
    Mullins, Lottie  Dau F W 4yr1mo Single NM GA TX
    Mullins, Athelie  Dau F W 1yr6mos Single NM GA TX

    Looking at the ages and birth dates of the children, we can tell they moved to New Mexico between 1922 and 1925.  In 1930, we find Lindsey and Tillie in Castro County, Texas.  Here Tillie is reported as Tillie S, perhaps representing the other name Susie, under which her marriage is reported as noted above.  this must mean her name was May Tillie Susie (Susan?) Gordon.

    1930 Federal Census, Castro County, Texas, 23 April, Precinct 4, District 8, page 6B, Hse #106, Fam #107
    Mullins, Linsey C  Head Rents M W 51 Married at age 21 GA GA GA Farmer
    Mullins, Tillie S  Wife F W 48 Married at 15 TX KY MO
    Mullins, Jinnie Dau F W 25 Single OK GA TX
    Mullins, Opal Dau F W 20 Single OK GA TX
    Mullins, Clyde Son M W 18 Single OK GA TX
    Mullins, Lottie Dau F W 15 Single NM GA TX
    Mullins, Athel Dau F W 11 Single NM GA TX
    Mullins, Louis [sic] Dau F W 8 Single NM GA TX
    Cox, Merton Son-in-Law M W 33 Married at 22 OK GA TX
    Cox, Ida Dau F W 29 Married at 19 OK GA TX

    From the birth ages and states of the children we can conclude that Lindsey and Tillie moved from New Mexico to Texas after 1922.  But it is hard with only this evidence to be any more precise.  One genealogy provides the place of death of Lindsey, though it provides no documentation for this information.
