1) Article "Four Generations Gather to Honor Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Horn", TheChickasha Daily Express, June 1953, Horn Family Reunion, June 1953 - listed as "other guests attending the reunion" were Mr. and Mrs. Ben Matthews of Chickasha [OK]. Ben's mother was Margaret "Maggie" Horn-Matthews, who also attended the reunion. Listed in the article, directly after the names of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Matthews are the names of children: Nancy, Linda, Morgan and Nancy DeKinder. The use of Nancy's name twice is thought to be an error. In the reunion photo, there are three little girls sitting directly in front of Mattie Matthews which are thought to be these girls. They are possibly the granddaughters of Ben and Mattie Matthews. [Note: Ben and Mattie Matthews were two of this researcher's most favorite folks and fond memories of them both are vivid to this date. Mattie was a wonderful gardener and their home in Chickasha was always surrounded with beautiful blooming flowers. Visits were made often to see them. Ben and Mattie also visited my grandparents, J.R. and Tennie Horn, often.]

[Note: Living next door to Benj F. Mathews and Sarah E. Fields, in HH56, is the family of Jerry Fields and Kate Horn-Fields. Why is Sarah E. Fields shown as Benj. F. Mathews' mother? He married in Grady Co., OK in 1921 so could he have traveled from Texas to Oklahoma between census times and have been counted on two census records....Texas and Oklahoma?]
