Lilly: I am looking for info on my uncle, named above, that seems to coincide with a listing on your Ancestry file. A few differences however do exist: my record shows Robt born 9 Oct 1870; married Lizzie Farmer in 1882. Father of Robert was George T. Eaton, mother Nannie Eaton. Does this tie in with your info? Would be glad to hear from you. George Eaton in California
Subj: Regarding Robert E. Eaton Date: 10/4/00 4:36:51 PM Central Daylight Time From: Hophopdian To: GreatNelma CC: Lillyj57
Lilly passed on you request for information on Robert E. Eaton to me, as I was doing research on his wife Mary Annie Parker. Your Robert and mine are the same person. He was also married to Lizzie Farmer. I have an obituary that states that. I believe I received it from the Enid Library, but I am not 100% sure. If you would like a copy and feel comfortable sending your address via email, I would be more than glad to send them to you. There are two notices. I will try to type them out and send them to you through your email address. Let me know that you received this email, so I know I have the correct one. I will also send a copy of this to Lilly so that she knows I have responded. I hope the information is of some help to you. Diane

Funeral Notice:
FUNERAL RITES PENDING FOR ROBERT LEE Eaton
Funeral services are pending at the Henniger-Allen Funeral Home for Robert Lee Eaton, 94, 1602 E. Market.
Eaton died Wednesday evening in a local hospital. He had been in failing health for several years, becoming seriously ill during the past two weeks.
He was born and raised in Missouri, and worked for railroads in Oklahoma and Texas. He moved to Okeene in 1912, and to Enid in 1914, where he retired in 1921 as yard foreman.
He married Lizzie Farmer in 1892. She preceded him in death in 1907. He married the former Mary Ann Ray in 1914, in Enid.

I am not sure where this clipping came from. I have not been doing my Family Tree Project for some time now, but I am more than willing to help anyone with information I have. I hope this has answered some of your questions. As you can see by the obit your Uncle was married twice. I usually don't have any information on the spouses, so you were lucky on Robert Lee.
Thank you Lilly for passing George's request on to me. I hope you both have good luck on information you are searching for. Diane
