Hiram Willis Webb was born on January 8, 1875, in Pine Springs, Lamar County, Alabama.  He was the second son who lived of James Franklin Webb and Pernina Blalock Webb.  He had six younger siblings and together the family lived in Lamar County, Alabama and then in Itawamba County, Mississippi, where they are on the 1900 census.  

The family moved right after that to LeFlore County, Oklahoma, where Hiram married Pocahuntas "Polk" Shrader on January 12, 1902.  Polk was from Arkansas and was born on March 22, 1883.  Hiram was a farmer in LeFlore County.  Hiram and Polk had seven children together, but one was born premature and died.  In 1910, the census found him here:
