Earl Benton Long and Joe Bailey Long

I am looking for information on Lillian Long, daughter of Earl Benton Long and sister of Joe Bailey Long. Lillian was born about 1905 in Oklahoma.

I have the obituaries for both Earl and Joe. Earl's says that he had three grandchildren. I have been able to determine that two of them were sons of Joe Bailey Long. The third was probably the child of Lillian, who is not mentioned in either obituary. Can anyone help me find this child? I have no idea who Lillian married.

Also, does anyone know if Earl had a second wife? No wife is mentioned in his obituary. The mother of Lillian and Joe Bailey was Susan Ida Jackson, whose father was my great grandmother's half-brother. Susan died in Crosby County in 1923. She is buried in Hood County, Texas, near her parents and first child who died young.
