Notes

The SSDI gives her birth year as 1911, but it is wrong. We know that she was born in 1910 because she remembered that she was 15 when she married. Because of this error, she had to wait a year to draw her Social Security.

She is buried with her husband Jesse in Adam's Cemetery, near Bonne Terre, St. Francois Co, MO.
