When he registered for the Draft during World War I, he was farming on Rt. 7 in Canton, Texas. He listed his date and place of birth as Oct 20, 1894 in Conral, Texas, and was shown as a resident of Van Zandt, Texas. He described himself as married and the father of one child. As no children are listed with the couple on the 1920 census, it would appear that the child died at a young age. He was shown as of medium build, with blue eyes and brown hair. The form was completed on June 5, 1917.
Find A Grave records show son Douglas Seay did indeed die in 1918, at the age of only 18 months. As no other children are listed with the couple on the 1930 or 1940 census, he may have been there only child.

*Dennis emailed, on May 21, 2023, that Betty STASTNEY, shown as Barbara's mother above, is not correct. Betty was born a FILIP. Her parents were James Ralph "Jim" FILIP and Julia Rose SLADEK. James died in 1950 and Julia second married Jaroslav "Jerry" STASTNY (note the correct spelling of STASTNY). I would suspect that's where the alternative surname is coming from but Barbara was 18 when her mom remarried so I doubt she was adopted and if so I have found no documentation to that effect. By the way Stastny in Czech means "happy" as in Stastny Novy Rok (Happy New Year).
The History of Sabine Parish, Louisiana (author John Belisle, The Sabien Banner Press, 1912) states that "in 1860 the white population of Sabine Parish numbers about four thousant, and there were less than two thousand slaves. There were few really wealthy people in the parish, and many owned not more than one of two slaves. the owners of six or more in 1861 included D. W. Self.
The Texas Birth Index shows he was born to Levi Ward Self and Vivian Juanita Hancock.

Settled in Crawford County, Ohio in 1829; both members of the Methodist Episcopal church. At the time of the 1850 census, a Martin and Rebecsa Schaffner were living next to Ann Shaffner and John Cramer in Bloom Township, Seneca County, Ohio. FindAGrave notes that "he became somewhat of a legendary person in the Shaffner genealogy, often noted for his "three wives and 21 children." In fact, he was widowed three times and married four times. He is also known to have had more than 125 grandchildren, many of whom were born after his death, even though he lived to be 83. He also had more than 300 great-grandchildren. "
Her Texas Death Certificate shows that she was a School Teacher, and only 35 when she died. Her usual residence was Avalon, Ellis County, Texas. She died at FM 55 and Chambers creek, due to an "accidental drowning in water trying to save daughter." She was married, and the informant was her husband, James R. Worsham.

In 1920, the family were still in Baltimore, on N. Chester Street, and he was shown as a proprietor of a Dry Goods Store. They has three daughters, Ruth, Edith and Mary.
A Benjamin Shapiro, age 35 and born September 25, 1883 registered for the draft during World War I as a resident of Baltimore, his residence and grocery store both located at 1013 1/2 Low Street. His nearest relative was Cecelia Shapiro of the same address. He was of Medium Height and build, with brown eyes and dark brown hair.
A Benjamin and Celia Shapiro also share a burial plot at the Anshe Neisen Cemetery, Rosedale, Baltimore County, Maryland. However, the birth date for Benjamin differs, instead being shown as 18 Oct 1882, with a date of death of 10 Feb 1940. Celia's date of birth was listed as 15 May 1881, and death was 3 July 1969.
Due to the similar names, but conflicting birthdates, more research should be done to determine the birth and death date of Benjamin and Celia.
Philip S. Shapiro emailed, in July 2020 that "I am the son of Dr. Solomon Shapiro and the grandson of Benjamin Shapiro, who was known in Lithuania as Dov Ber Shapiro. Before emigrating, he attended the Telshe Yeshiva in Telsiai / Telz, Lithuania. Benjamin's father was Mordechai Laib Shapiro, who was also from Kamai / Kamajai, Lithuania. He also emigrated to the United States, where he was known as Max Louis Shapiro, and was buried at the same cemetery as the rest of the family. I can provide more information."

She died in an auto accident. The social security death index instead lists her year of birth as 1885, and date of death as Jan 1974. It appears that the news article relating to the Keaton and Dillo Wright family reunion, from which her birth and death date were taken, would be more accurate. Her last residence on the SSDI was Rochester, Haskell County, Texas.
