Census US 1920*28 January 1920Nancy and Frank Hart were enumerated on the 1920 census taken on 28 January 1920 in Moore, Muskogee County, Oklahoma. Frank was 59 years of age and a teamster in the oilfield industry, and Nancy was 45 years of age. They rented their house, and both were able to read and write. Four children were enumerated with them in 1920, and all were recorded with the surname Hart. We know, however, that Archie and Ivy, ages 13 and 9 years, respectively, were Nancy's children from her previous marriage with Joseph Mason. Archie was able to read and write and neither of the Mason children had attended school within the census year. We suspect that Frankie Hart, age 6, was the mysterious Frankie Hill, and believe that Woodrow Hart, who was about 3 years old, was the son of Frank and Nancy.7

When the Deputy Sheriff and Coroner visited the home they found Hartley's body lying before a mirror in the front room and concluded that he had evidently stood before the mirror, taken careful aim and fired the shot. He was survived by three daughters and one son, all from his first wife who had died in 1901. His second wife, whom he married in 1909, died in 1924.
