Little else in known about her early years and after her marriage in 1919 she moved away. In 1929 she became ill but not seriously ill until two weeks before her death. She underwent surgery in a hospital in Kansas City, MO on July 23, and died on July 25. Her husband was away at the time, (it is believed he worked for a circus) and could not be located until after she had been buried. I remember that when her sister Annie died the year before, she made the statement that she wished she could have died instead of Annie.
