Notes

Note

Was in Franklin County in 1900 per census and in 1906

Per letter from Delores Benning of Hampton, Mary's name was Florence Douglas, but everything else I have states it was Mary.  One or the other is probably her middle name.

Article from Sentinel on her death
Mrs. L. D. Morrow died at the home of her son, Glen, in Pleasant Prairie Friday afternoon after an eight week illness.  She was 79 years old last June.  Death was due to the infimities of age.

Mrs. Morrow is survived by four sons and three daughters.  The children are Glen of Pleasant Prairie; Lloyd of Fairmont; Earl of Phoenix, Arizonia, Wayne of Lakefield;  Mrs. Amon Olson of Phoenix; Mrs. Monte Sisson of Los Angeles; Mrs. Frank Nelson of Alden, Iowa.  Two sisters and three brothers all residing out of the state also survive.

Mr. Morrow and two sons preceded Mrs. Morrow in death.

Mrs. Morrow had been a resident of Martin County for about 35 years, residing in Fairmont, Pleasant Prairie, and in the nearby locality.  She resided with her husband on East 4th Street in Fairmont about 32 years.

Funeral services will be conducted at 2 p.m. Monday at the Beyer & Quackenbush mortuary.  Rev. Edward Lee officiating.  Burial will be in Lakeside Cemetery.

Per 1880 Census, she was listed as 11 years old, which meant she may have been born a year later (1868)  The 1900 census also confirms this.
