I am not related. I will see if I can help. You provided no vitals on your family. However, I find Ray Bolton in the census records to be in Tullahassee, Wagoner County OK in 1920 census with his mother and two older siblings.

Ray Bolton was listed in Tulsa, Tulsa county 1930 census age 26, single, boarding with Horace and Melba Cole. Horace was born in Texas about 1880, Melba was born about 1898.

Ray Bolton born 30 Apr 1903 died Sep 1978 last resided in Tulsa.

Ray's older brother, transcribed as Otto Bolton born in Texas about 1902 was listed in Tullahassee in Wagoner County 1930 census with wife and five children, appx birth years. Flora was not listed as Bolton if still living in 1930.

Grace 1903
Bernie 1922 dtr
Allena 1924 dtr
Warrenetta 1925 dtr
Oscar E 1926 son born 31 Dec 1926 died 08 Oct 1991 last resided Buffalo, Erie Co, NY ss # issued Oklahoma
Otto 1929 son

2 Feb 1920;Census Place: Tullahassee, Wagoner, Oklahoma; Roll: T625_1483; Page: 17B; Enumeration District: 186; Image: 477
Flora Bolton age 49 black female, widow, born Texas abt 1881, parents born Texas, farming
Tessie Bolton age 21 dtr born Texas 1899
Olton Bolton age 19 son born Texas 1901
Ray Bolton age 16 son born Texas 1904

Sorry to report that the family was not found in 1900 and 1910 census and Flora Neal was already married to Richard Bolton when 1900 census came around and most of the 1890 record burned in 1921. That would be the only record she would be listed in with her parents.

100 Bolton's were enumerated in Camp county in 1900, all black. This record includes month and year of birth, not always accurate, how many years married, how many children were born to a couple and how many were living in June of 1900.

No relations either! Research in some counties can be challenging! Camp County was created from Upshur on 6 Apr 1874. Find the object of his search, Florence Neil(sp), with parents in 1870 Upshur-Precinct 1-Image 63. Lawrence Neil(27) and Harriet(25) were born in Georgia. Their children: Florence(6), William(3), and Amanda(1) were born in Texas. In 1880 Camp-Precinct 1-District 6-Image 57, Florence and Amanda, from 1870, were still with parents. William was missing? New additions were: Kay(8), Mary(7), Rucy(5), and Lilly (11/12). Florence must have married, first, around 1882? Find her with husband Munch Bolton(40) in 1900 Camp-Precinct 1-District 13-Image 59. She had given birth to 11 and all were still living. They were: Isaiah(16), Oscar(14), Luvenia(12), Estella(11), Pearle(9), Lula D.(7), Willie(5), Teechie(3), Shelly(2), Lilly(1), and Richard(Jan 1900). Lawrence Neal had remarried to Annie/Anna Jones about 1892. Find them in 1900 Hunt-Precinct 7-District 138-Image 9. Lawrence Neal(60), Annie(33), Sadie(15), Carrie(12), Early(17), Katie(5), Richard(4), and Elton/Ellington(2). Think I'll stop here and await response from the originator!

Okay, you are still researching! I have not had much success finding people in Oklahoma-not my favorite place. I began this after reading your first message but misplaced the notes. Lawrence Neal and Annie Jones had two sons that I focused on: Aaron/Milton/Melton and Ellington/Elton. Both registered for WWI Draft in Camp County but there are conflicts in their birthdates with dates from the death certificates. Are you able to access Texas Death Certificates online? The address http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html?... Your computer must be configured with javascript to view/print the available data. That is a "free" and safe download that only takes approximately 15 minutes. Google it and follow the instructions. What was Munch Bolton's real name? I am from that area of East Texas and knew several people nicknamed "Munch". You are going to need lots of information. The Camp County Clerk has a marriage index available for purchase. Strongly recommended.

You seem to know a lot about your ancestors, already? What are you seeking? Are you trying to connect with those still in Camp County? Are there specific questions, i.e. "brickwalls", you are trying to resolve?
