1870 Gertrude E. (Meier)***see below
1873 Elsie Caroline (Summerfield) (Zieber) d. 1942
Note***
In 1930, after the death of her husband in 1922, Martha was living in the Kings Daughters Home located in Oakland, Alameda, CA. Was she sent from MN, where Elam died, to live near her daughter?
The information that I have found states that it was a residence for the "incurable", not sure what that means. Was she physically ill or mentally ill?
When she died she was sent back to MN to be buried next to her husband.
