:Appears as head of household with her children Bishop, Clinton, Cicero, Ellen, Edgar, and Talmage, but not William or Katherine. Bishop's age is given as either 14 or 17 (probably 14), which contradicts what was previously recorded. The information we previously had comes from FamilySearch and matches a headstone in Sans Bois Cemetery. I think the FamilySearch info comes from that headstone and is incorrect. (ie. I think that Bishop Harris is a different Bishop Harris.) This would also affect Bishop's middle initial (came from headstone) and his parents' estimated marriage date (previously based on assumption that Bishop was the first child).

: A "Helen A. Cuson" is listed here as a niece in the LaBass family. I searched Lawrence County, and interestingly enough, this Helen was only 1 of 2 in the results. (The other was a Wilbanks. I got no results when searching for Cason. I thought all vowels were equivalent with soundex. Oh well.) The name matched so well that I checked it out and found that the record was in Reeds Creek, the very same town Permelia's husband is from. Is this Helen "Ann" Cason? What about the "F" in the death record below? (Not a huge problem, as initials are frequently messed up when transcribed from old records.) Where does the "Permelia" part come from?

Helen's line reads: Harris, Helen ; 10 Jan 1858 - 28 Sep 1947
The cemetery also has many of Helen's relatives and the headstone data fits the Helen that I have found in the 1910 census.

Death Records on the McCurtain, Haskell County, Oklahoma Genealogical Society's website.
They don't give many details on how or where they found the records, but they're supposed to be "local". The only name I could find that I recognized, was Helen's. Her line from the record read as follows: HARRIS, Helen , F , 28 Sept 1947 , Book 6 , 21
I presume this is the same Helen based on the matching death date. (For this reason I match it with the headstone source.) Helen is listed as Helen F. Harris. (I am therefore made a bit more curious where we get "Permelia Ann" from. It's not in any of my other sources.)

A "Helen A. Cason" is listed here as a 22 year old niece in the LaBass family. (The indexers apparently read the name as "Helen A. Cuson".) Further research has shown that our Helen Cason's mother Mary F. (Frost) Cason was the sister of Volumnia Anne (Frost) LaBass. (Mary F. Cason was apparently also the half-sister of her mother-in-law.)
