She lived successively thereafter in Petaluma, where her husband was postmaster, in Calistoga and in Alameda and in 1888 moved to Ventura County. For several years the family lived on Ventura Avenue where the good woman by her quiet and sweet disposition her ministrations to the sick and needy made everyone her friend.
