This is a picture of Ma Barker's half-brother, Chesley Reynolds and two half-sisters, Goldie (L) and Ophia (R.) It was taken about 1895 in Miller, Lawrence Co., MO. Chesley Reynolds worked for several years in the early 1930's for the Tulsa police dept. He died in 1955 in Cowlitz Co., WA. Goldie apparently married a Hanners and died in Long Beach, L.A. Co., CA, in 1972. Ophia married George Beecher Perryman, Jr., in 1901 in Tulsa. The Perrymans were Creek Indians who were Tulsa's "first family." She last appeared on the 1910 Census of Kansas City, Jackson Co., MO. She may have died about 1910 because it appears that her dau. Ophia was adopted about that time, very likely by her grandparents, Reuben R. and Emma E. (Parker) Reynolds. I find no record for Ophia Perryman after 1910.
