    In 1910, we find James Henry has moved north to Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma.  This census gives us everybody's middle initial.

    1910 Federal Census, Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, 23 April, Avoca Township, District 192, page 4B, Konawa Route 2, Hse/Fam #79

    Now Annie is called Mary A.  This tells us she is Mary Annie.  A family genealogy tells us this is Mary Annie Conley.  Their daughter Dora has been married since the 1910 census, buit is now reported as a widow.  Later she will be reported as Divorced, rather than Widowed.

    There are two memorials on Find a Grave for burials in two different cemeteries that match James Henry.  The first, the name James Henry Loivin, is in Weleetka where he died, according to a family member and researcher, originally had no birth or death dates or place.  When accessed again on 18 August 2015, the full dates and places had been added, as in family sources and records..

    Another in Oklahoma  City, is in the name J H Lovin and has the same dates of birth and death as reported by the family genealogist gave in her comment, which also included the places of birth and death.   Perhaps a memorial stone was piut up in both cemeteries.  I am not sure where the actual burial took place.  I have known of one or two other instances of such a thing.
