Lottie SPARLIN

07 Jan 2011 – Who is Lottie SPARLIN? Today she would have celebrated her 127th birthday. All I know is she was born 7 Jan 1884 in Oklahoma and died Mar 1966 in Madill, Marshall County, Oklahoma. Could she be Charlotta (Lottie) Magnolia Martin, wife of James Harvey Sparlin? Any one related to this SPARLIN line?
