==Annie's later years==

Though Annie's life is one of considerable folklore, by 1901 she had returned to Oklahoma, where she married Earl Frost of Perry. The couple had two sons, Robert C. Frost (1903-1993) and Carlos D. Frost, before they divorced in 1909. The museum in Guthrie maintains that Annie married a second time—to Whitmore R. Roach (1879-1947), a native [[Texas|Texan]], veteran of [[World War I]], and a painting contractor in [[Oklahoma City]], where they lived after 1912, having resided the preceding two years in [[Fort Worth]], [[Texas]]. This "Emma McDoulet Roach," as reads the tombstone in Rose Hill Burial Park in Oklahoma City, died in 1978, just a few weeks shy of her nineth-sixth birthday. Her newspaper obituary makes no mention of the "Cattle Annie" days or even the first name "Anna" but uses the reduced "Emma" from "Emmaline". The obituary indicates that she had been a bookkeeper in her later working career. Her services were held in the Olivet [[Baptist]] Church in Oklahoma City, of which she was a member. She was also a member of the American Legion Auxiliary.<ref name=fgrave/>
