The birth of Maggie in Missouri indicates that Hettie and Robert moved to Missouri for a short time then back to Oklahoma. Likely Robert died in Oklahoma. Sebastian County is across the border in Arkansas. There was a lot of movement of Terrry family members across the border between LeFlore County, Oklahoma, and Sebastian and neighboring Counties in Arkansas.
