In later years Maggie and all the kids lived in the house, on the farm near Marshal Oklahoma, and Calvin lived in a dugout on the side of the hill. My mother spent a lot of time following Calvin around.

Calvin nicknamed my mother "Bonnie Parker". Probably because she was a little wild. He told her how, as a young boy growing up on the ranch in the Cherokee Outlet, the James Gang, the Youngers and other outlaws would come to the ranch. They would give him a dollar to water their horses and such.

Maggie moved to California with some of the children in the late 1930's for a few years. Irene Opal tried to make it in the movies and actualy had a few small parts before her death from Tuberculosis. John Quinton attended UCLA.
