    Frances' granddaughter comemnts:
    "Jesse Gooch ...
    He married Francis (Fannie) Onelia Clark (2nd wife) in 1905. She was 23 and he was 46. She was born in Navarro County, Texas Oct 3, 1882. After Jesse's death, she remarried, to W L Howerton, and is buried in Rose Hill Cemetery in Chickasha, Okla."

    The question of a third wife came in because of one census with some unexplained information.
