Mabel E. Gentry

1892 -

• Name	Mabel E. Gentry  [1, 2]
  Birth	Between 1891 and 1892	Stephens County, Oklahoma   [1, 2]
  Gender	Female
  Notes	Could this have been the Mabel E. Gentry (18) of Duncan who married James J. Haymaker (21) of Duncan on 9 Jul 1908? It certainly seems possible. Unfortunately the parents were not given in this entry. How could she have married twice in the same year-maybe her first husband, James Haymaker, died shortly after the wedding. That would have given five months. May have divorced by 1910. She was recorded as living in her parental home. Mabel was referred to in a list of the surviving children of John Price Gentry as "Mrs. C. S. Kerr - [of] Chula Vista, Calif."
