James O. and Myrtle May Maples-Morris



Sarah's maternal grandparents, James O. Morris and Myrtle May Maples-Morris who died at the age of twenty-five. They ran for land in the Oklahoma Land Rush in Woods County, Oklahoma, before statehood. Sarah's mother was born in the underground Indian dwelling, located on their homestead and this is where she fell through the roof of the dwelling, lapsed into a coma, at the age of two, and suffered some brain damage that would partially handicap her for life.
