Ida Belle Fox, born Oct in 1871 or 1872 in Iowa

I am seeking information on the descendants of Ida Belle Fox, born Oct in 1871 or 1872 in Iowa. Her father Elias Fox was elderly; her mother was Rebecca Brumfield/Broomfield, who was Elias' second wife. Ida had a full brother Newton and a full sister Sarah or Sadie. This family moved to Sumner County, Kansas, where Elias died. (Elias left a huge number of descedants in Iowa from his first marriage during his long residence in Appanoose County.)

I recently found Ida's family in the 1900 census of Cleveland Town, Jordan Valley Township in Pawnee, Oklahoma Territory:

James F. Rodgers, a farm renter, 36 and born April 1864 in Illinois of parents born in Tennessee
Ida B. Rodgers, 29 and born in April of 1871 in Iowa of a father born in Virginia [error] and a mother in Kentucky

The couple had been married for 14 years, so Ida must have been very young when she married. She had birthed and saved five children:

Nellie M. Rodgers, 12 and born July 1887 in Kansas
Goldie L. Rodgers, 10 and born September 1889 in Kansas
Bertha F. Rodgers, 9 and born Februray 1891 in Kansas
Ralph N. Rodgers, 7 and born March 1893 in Kansas
Irma E. Rodgers, 1 and born December 1898 in Oklahoma

The family of James M. and Mary A. Rodgers and their son Charles were listed next.

I find scattered records for some of these children later in California. Does anyone have good in-family information about this line? Some of these children's names are new to me.

Elias Fox was my great-great grandfather from his first marriage.
