Needing information about Eva Lena "Birdie" (Bohannon) Popchoke

Question

So I know she was born in TX got married in TX and died in OK. I just need to know who her parents were the 1910 census say her dad was from Mississippi and her mom was from Alabama and the 1930 census says her dad was from Alabama and her mom was from Mississippi. I have no found a 1920s census but she was born in 1878 in Pairs, Lamar, TX and she was married to John Popchoke in 1899 in Pairs, Lamar, TX and she died in 1932 in Altus, Jackson, OK. So I am needing to know if anyone else is researching her family etc if so please help?! Thanks in advanced!

Answer 1

There is an ancestry post here:

WILLIAM FRANKLIN BOHANNON, BROTHER CHARLES, SISTERS CLEMMIE, BETTY AND BIRDIE BOHANNON

has a contact for a relative who may be able to help

I have checked that out there is not much information and the email in the post is no good and I have tried to get ahold of her via ancestry to no avail so that is a no-go. And she doesn't have much information on Eva's parents so ya tried that route before I came here and its a bust.

Answer 2

Lillie Mae Popchoke was my great grandmother. Her daughter, Edith Carnathan Horn was my grandmother. I'm currently researching our family lineage. I'm not sure of how much help I can be, but I'll be glad to give you any information I have.

My grandmother married John Allen Popchoke in 1957 in Kay Oklahoma they I know for a fact have 3 children: Linda Joyce (Popchoke) Merz 1961-2015, Jana Sue (Popchoke) Craig 1962 living and a stillborn baby boy 1963-1963 now my father is Robert Ray Popchoke 1964-living there is a bit of mystery as to whom his father is its between John Allen Popchoke or Jerry Ray Potter my grandma put John down on the birth certificate and I was told John killed himself believing mtmy father may not be his son but that is why all my dads kids have Popchoke as the last name and I believe John has 6 known grand kids and maybe 7 more

I got this from one of Johns grandkids she is the niece of Lillie Popchoke her dad is Roy Chester Popchoke and Jesse Ray Popchoke was John Allen Popchoke dad who married my grandma Robert Jane Orr "All I know is what grandpa John Popchoke when we lived in Altus. He told mom he came from Poland when he was 2. His dad died when he was 12, his stepmother was going to put him and his sister in a Catholic childrens home in Texas. He lived with a family named West in Waco. The first time we can find him is when he married Eva Lena (Birdie) Bohannon in Paris, Texas."
