Lillian Ellen was a foster child of Samuel and Nella (Baum) Austin, never officially adopted, but she took the Austin name. (History of Benton County, Iowa; The Lewis Publishing Company, Chicago, 1910; Luther B. Hill, Ed., Pages 592-595
Mr. and Mrs. Austin, having no children of their own, have adopted and reared several orphans and prepared them for useful citizenship. They are: Harry, who now lives in Salt Lake, Utah; John W., at home; Beulah Axie, living in North Dakota; Lillian Ellen, wife of Roy Epperson, of Taylor township. They also reared a boy, Eddie, from infancy to twelve years, and he now lives with Mrs. Austin's sister in Kansas.)

Mrs. Geo.[sic] Epperson Died Yesterday
Funeral to be Held from Home Tomorrow Afternoon at 2:30
Mrs. Roy Epperson passed away yesterday morning at the hospital in Iowa Falls where she had been taken the evening previous for an operation. A daughter was born Saturday to Mr. and Mrs. Epperson, living but a few minutes. Sunday the mother’s condition became worse and Tuesday it was decided that an operation was necessary to save her life and she was taken to the hospital at the Falls, but this proved of no avail. Deceased was about 35 years of age and besides her husband is survived by one daughter and five sons, besides other relatives. Mr. and Mrs. Epperson moved onto the Hanson farm north of Alden last spring and for the two years previous had lived on one of the W. W. Fiske farms also in that locality We have been unable to secure further data for this issue. Funeral services will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 from the family home and will be conducted by Rev. Phillips, pastor of the Methodist church at Popejoy. Interment will be in the Alden cemetery.
