    Her name in the 1930 census was spelled Juanita, as we might expect.  The 1920 census reported her, as well as all her siblings,. born in Oklahoma.  However, the 1930 census reported her, her older brother J W and her younger sister -- the three oldest children -- born in Texas, and the later ones born in Oklahoma.  So it appears that Owen and Maggie moved to Oklahoma after the birth of Ida May in about 1917.
