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.1 BIRT

several years prior to her marriage.
She died at the age of 76. She was cremated and her ashes are at Mountain

sister Clara on 1 Aug 1895. He left Clara a year after the baby was born. I
