Daughter of Joseph and Hannah Louisa/Louise Monson Hickenbottom. The inscription on the Roth monument in Roth cemetery provides her birth year as 1867, while her obituary in the Fairfield Ia Daily Ledger uses 1868. Will use the 1867 date pending clarification.


Ada was first married to Christian Roth (Ocotber 12, 1893) and they had one child, a son Joseph. At some point after being widowed she remarried to Henry Marshall Miller.

There is some legitimate question as to whether or not Ada is buried elsewhere (Ohio, perhaps, where she died), or was buried with Christian but her death date not engraved (a common oversight). Ada remarried to Henry Marshall Miller and eventually moved to Ohio, where she died on December 31, 1940. Her death certificate and obituary only indicated that she was to be cremated; disposition of her cremains were not disclosed.

------------
Note: this memorial is being made under the Roth surname; her second married name was Miller. If in the event that clarification is found to show where she was buried and under the Miller surname, if elsewhere other than Roth cemetery, then this memorial will be modified accordingly.
