Fred, Thanks for your answer. A couple of years ago I went to the courthouse in McKinney, Texas and got copies of all 3 Washington Boren marriages. This is why I am sure that my husband's G Grandfather Washington Boren never married anyone but Mary Olivia McCarley.
#1 Washington A.L. Boren m. Nancy A Howell, 1 Nov 1859.
Israel Boren's son, Washington Boren is listed in the household of Israel Boren in the U.S. Federal Census 1860 for Collin Co. Texas, precinct 6, P.O. Pilot Grove, Roll M653-1291 Page 81, Image 168.taken 21 Aug, 1860. I don't think this Washington is the one who married Nancy A. Howell, since he was still living single in his father's household a year later.
#2 Washington Boren. m. Mary A(Olivia) McCarley, 7 Jan 1864( there are 2 year dates on the marriage license but the 1864 date is correct.) Washington and Olivia had their son and only child, Charles, 23 Aug 1866, so I do not think he is the Washington below.
#3 Washington T. Boren m. Sarah J Glover 15 Jul 1865. You will note the date. My Washington, married Olivia 7 Jan 1864 and they had Charles 23 Aug 1866, so I am sure he was not marrying Sarah J. Glover 15 July 1865.
On ancestry.com, 1870 US Federal Census, precinct 2, Collin Co. Tx. P.O. Farmersville(note all the Borens for Collin Co. are listed as Bosen which is incorrect.) The original is quite plan to read as Boren.
Washington Bosen(Boren) -age 26
Oliver(Olivia) -age 20
Charles -age 4
On ancestry.com, 1880 US Federal Census, precinct 7, Callahan Co. TX.(they are still together)
Washington Boren -age 39
Olivia -age 30
Charles -age 13
I do know that this Washington Boren is not buried at Beaver, Ok. He is probable buried in Callahan Co. Tx.
In his father, Israel Boren's Will dated 8 Dec. 1893 he states that Washington is dead.
Charles Boren and his Mother Olivia Boren came to what is now Beckham County, Ok. in about 1893. Charles had a store and postoffice called Wash, Ok. It was located North and west of Carter, Ok. on the Northfork of Red River.
Mary Olivia married Joe B. Hudson, 3 July, 1895 at Cheyenne, Ok. Roger Mills Co. and they resided in Sayre, Ok. She died 6 Jun 1915 and is buried in the Old Sayre Cemetery, Sayre, Ok. Beckham Co.
There is no evidence that Washington Boren ever came to Oklahoma.
Charles Boren had a son, Wash Boren, named after his father and in the 1920's he moved with Charles Boren and Wife Sadie Myrtle(Thomas) Boren to Perryton, Texas. Maybe this is were the confusion came in about Beaver, Ok.
I am sure there is lots of good information in Helen Meeks book but the information on this Washington Boren is incorrect and I list all of it here inorder to help any other researchers of this Washington Boren. They are few now with the Boren name descended from Washington Boren. All of Charles children are desceased. 3 sons and 2 daughters. Their descendents are all that remain of Washington and Olivia.
I appreciate your prompt reply. Please keep me in mind if anymore information should surface on this Washington Boren.
I'll do the same for you. Thanks, Bettye.
