Carl
Johnson and his wife Lela lived in Altus in 1949 when Claud died. Carl had been in the Army in World War
I. According to Thelma Johnson
Haley, Carl had no middle name and got tired of the military hassle this
caused, so he told everyone his middle name was "Bob."
The
1920 census shows Carl and Lela
(age 28) living at 613 North Spergeon in Altus, Oklahoma, with daughter
Vera aged 10 and son Alva aged 9.
As mentioned earlier, Lela and Vestal's wife Vallie were sisters whose
maiden name was Ward.
