I am trying to find out where LeFlore Dillard was located in the 1910 and 1920 censuses. LeFlore was the son of Hamilton Josiah Dillard (b. 1830) and Elizabeth Halsey LeFlore (b. 1838), and was one of 11 children.

I found LeFlore and family in the 1900 census as follows:
Township 4 South, Range 2 West (near Hewitt), Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory, ED 175, sheet 1B, Dwelling #215, Family #223, lines 25-27, Ancestry.com online census image 28 of 30.

I also found LeFlore and family in the 1930 census as follows:
Oklahoma City (Ward 3), Oklahoma County, OK, ED 94, sheet 4A, Dwelling #44, Family # 94, lines 39-43, Ancestry.com online census image 7 of 36.

The Chronicles of Oklahoma, Volume 6, No. 3, indicates that LeFlore was the US Postmaster for Belzoni, Pushmataha County, OK as of October 20, 1905. His daughter Irene Vassar Dillard was born in Belzoni in November 1906.

LeFlore is also shown as the informant on the death certificate of his brother, Josiah Hamilton Dillard on September 30, 1927. At that time LeFlore's residence was listed as Ringling, Jefferson County, OK.

Does anyone have further information about LeFlore and his family, particularly between 1906 and 1930? I would especially like to locate him in the 1910 and 1920 censuses, if anyone has been able to find him.
