81. James Thomas 'JT' YOAKUM. Born on 21 Sep 1880. James Thomas 'JT' died on 26 Aug 1963, he was 82.

On 16 Sep 1900 when James Thomas 'JT' was 19, he married Lola Bell Raper, daughter of William R. Raper & Sarah Vianna 'Vi' Rustin (1859-1929), in Houston, MO. Born on 22 May 1884. Lola Bell died on 19 Aug 1964, she was 80.

11 Much has been relayed about Lola's mom and dad - most of it is heresy. Some say her father (William 'Bill' Raper) was of Cheyenne heritage and he left the kids with Lola's mom, Sarah Vianna 'Vi' Rustin, and moved out to Puget Sound, WA. Some say he came back at least twice to see the kids and Vi.
Lola married JT when she was 15 years old and JT was 19


They had the following children:
95 i. Fern Ethel (1901-)
ii. Glen Teddy. Born on 10 May 1903. Glen Teddy died on 21 Sep 1921, he was 18. Occupation: Bronco Buster.

Glen was breaking wild horses (a bit of a horse whisperer they say) up in Wyoming for his Uncle John. On his way home, on September 21st, 1921 Glen and a companion were following the common practice of resting their heads on the train tracks waiting for the next freight. Usually, vibration from an approaching train would alert you long before it actually got near, but Glen fell asleep and didn't wake up in time. He was 18 years old.
