His birth state is reported as "Tennessee" in the last Census where we see George Thomas Anderson, but everything else is the same. George and Sarah still married and living in Elk City. They have no children, and still live and work on a Farm.
It must have been a difficult life, farming in those years when George and Sarah lived. Especially during the terrible years known as the Dust Bowl - the "dust" many of us imagine was like that which stung our legs as children in this still windy state was nothing like what the early Oklahomans experienced. There are stories of people braving the out- of - doors, only to find their mouths and noses filled with thick dirt that caused breathing to be impossible. It is so admirable that they and so many others stayed and continued to live and work.
George participated in a history project about very early Oklahoma and Indian Territory in 1937, when he lived in Sentinel, Oklahoma called the "Oklahoma and Indian Territory, Indian and Pioneer Historical Collection, 1937"
I have not been able to find it, but include it so hopefully it can be found later. This description is included:
"This collection contains transcripts of oral histories about pioneer life in Oklahoma in the early twentieth century. The project was funded by the WPA (Works Progress Administration project S-149) in 1937 in an effort to provide employment for people on the relief rolls. The interviews were not compiled by experts, and the quality of the interviews varies. The original collection was made up of some 80,000 entries and contains 116 volumes.
Stories will often contain the details such as these :
Names
Residence
Birth date and place
Interview date
Death date
Age at death
Burial place
Interviews may mention names of neighbors, family members, doctors, teachers, missionaries, and others, as well. The collection also includes lists of many old cemeteries, some of which no longer exist"
