* The actual document is shown. It says his home was Barr Seeley, Wisconsin. I looked that up, and there is a Seeley, Wisconsin. The father's name is supposed to also be in that box, so it could be dad's name instead of location.

Censuses from 1910 and 1920 show a John A. and Cora Wallace from Bear Creek, OK; but her age is about 5 years too old, and in 1910 they were married 26 years, so that doesn't work, as Cora was m. to R.W. in 1891.
