Martha [Ennis] was born Feb 1873 in Arkansas and was the daughter of Samuel J. ENNIS & Elizabeth [BLANKENSHIP] who married 08 Apr 1866 in Independance Co, Arkansas.
Who were Samuel's parents? siblings? When did he die?
Below is the 1880 census showing Martha with her parents and siblings:

I am also trying to find information on the parents & siblings of Thomas Elliott JACKSONborn Mar 1870 in Arkansas. Thomas 1st married Martha [ENNIS] abt 1888 in Ark and they had 6 chn live to adulthood. Below are the 1900 & 1910 censuses showing Thomas, Martha, & their chn:

I have not found Thomas in 1920 yet but in 1930 he was living in Atoka Co, Ok with his 2nd wife:

HORTON, Troy/step-son/wm age 12? 32? 52? Ar/Ar/Ar/single
Did Thomas remain in Atoka County? Did he return to Arkansas? Go to California with his son Ezra?
When/where did Thomas die?
Who were his parents? Where was he born?
Thomas & Martha's son Virgil married Ethel Marie [MESSER] abt 1918 - who did their other chn marry?
Thankyou for any information you may share with me,
