Sarah Alice Foreman Eads was the wife of James and the dau of Hiram Foreman and Elma Anna Sally, from Shelby Co IN. Her parents brought her to AR about 1870. She and her husband and children came to OK in time for two sons to register for WWI in OK. Charles W stayed, Frank returned to Lonoke Co AR, where he married and lived out his life. Daughter Margaret married Sidney DAVIS. I have recently found Sarah had a son when she married James Eads, and James adopted him. This son is James Robert Eads, born Feb 1880 in Carlisle AR, died in Louisiana. Whether or not his name was originally James is unknown to me.
