From a book her sister wrote about their family:
“A Volume of Personal Sketches and Family Life, Genealogy of Henry Bonnell and Amelia Bonnell and Other Members of the Family”, by Margaret Alice Bonnell Watson, Barry, Illinois 1930
The personal records of our sisters Ann Elizabeth and Laura afford but a brief account of their short lives, and the members of the family at hand cannot give further light on the subject. ...
Laura Bonnell lived to the age of fourteen years, nine months and fourteen days. She was born Dec. 7, 1851, at Griggsville, Ill. That was soon after they located at that place, and she passed away in the same town after the return to Griggsville from their stay at the farm. The date of her death was Sept. 21, 1866. Her disease was typhoid fever. The remains lie in the cemetery at Griggsville beside the bodies of her parents.
Laura was a beautiful and prepossessing girl and her demise, the second in the family, was keenly felt by all.
