Notes:

Married:
George Benson Kuykendall, M.D. has differing dates of birth listed for the children of Sarah Kuykendall and William Ramsey than those shown by Keith McGuire. It is assumed that Keith's dates, received by him via correspondence with the family, are more accurate. On page 242 of Kuykendall's book the children are listed as "Charles, born September, 1881, live at Trail, Oklahoma; George, born April 30, 1886, lives at Bakersfield, California, Grover C., born January 22, 1891, Osage City." The biggest discrepency is the name of their third son, Kuykendall showing him as Grover C., but Keith McGuire reporting him as Claude Arthur. Claude Arthur Ramsey died young, perhaps explaining how Kuykendall missed him. Also missing from Kuykendall's list is daughter Ethel May Ramsey, married to a Grover C. Howard. Perhaps this accounts for the confusion, especially as the date of birth of Ethel May Ramsey (Mrs. Grover Cleveland Howard) is January 21, 1891, the date that Kuykendall is showing for the erroneously listed Grover C. Ramsey.
