I have information that she died of uremic poisioning in her 50'S. He's also
in Mountain View Cemetery in Pasadena. She was a teacher in Lake Mills, and
arrived home for the summer on July first, where she met and fell in love with
William Holcomb, who was engaged to her sister Birtha "Birdie". They eloped on
1 Aug 1895. Harold was born in Oct of 1896, William deserted her a year later,
and she went back to teaching in 1898. There was "bad blood" between her and
Birdie. I understand she could have died in a mental institution in 1932. By
then she had worked things out with Birdie.

at Favel Grove, WI. Later they moved to Cold Springs, WI where he established
a successful dairy and stock farm of pure breed cattle, known as the "Holstein
Freisian Farm."

teachers and was engaged in teaching the Jefferson County District schools for
several years prior to her marriage.
She died at the age of 76. She was cremated and her ashes are at Mountain
View Cemetery in Pasadena, CA. I have a photograph taken on her wedding day.
The dress was made by her sister Lottie. I also have a photo of her and
Charles F on their 50th wedding anniversary. Favel Grove is now called
Waterloo.
Bertha was originally engaged to William Holcomb, who eloped with her
sister Clara on 1 Aug 1895. He left Clara a year after the baby was born. I

Children 4-9 are by second wife, Clara Kirshbaum. She didn't mind having all
the kids, because they ran the family dairy, and for her it was time off from
all the hard work. Lowell wasn't interested in a vasectomy when approached
about it because he kind of liked having all the little boogers around.
