Very complicated. I will try to help. Not knowing anything might be easier.
Franklin W Horton b abt 1872, probably in Wood Co, TX. He married Mollie Turman 28 Aug 1894 in Fannin Co, TX. They had 2 kids:
Lee Andrew 1896
Myrtle L 1902.
Frank married 2nd Hattie Matilda Jenkins abt 1905. Can't find record. Had 3 kids:
Laura Maggie 9 Jul 1909
John Marshall 20 Jul 1911

Frank died (again no record) and Hattie married Smith Anderson York. They had 4 kids:
Lessie Irene 1918
Odell (f) 1922
Hattie Matilda 1925
Smith Jr 1929.
