Thomas Ambrose Malott married Della Ray Williams on 28 July 1905 in Greene County, Arkansas.[1] Thomas was 21 and Della was 16 years old. In 1910[2] the couple are living in Cache Township, Arkansas.

On the census of 1920[3] Thomas is listed as a widower. Della died sometime after the birth of a son they named Clarence who was born in 1913. The couple also had a second daughter. Her name is Violet and she was born in 1911. Both children were born in Arkansas. The family is now living in Neal Township, Arkansas and Thomas is farming for himself instead of working for others. (The census was taken in February of 1920. Mariah is not listed as living with the family and she will die in July of that year.)

Thomas Ambrose (10) has completed the 4th grade. Mabel Clara (10) has completed the 3rd grade.
