Adolphson, Albertina
Albertina Carlson Adolphson - Leadville Carbonate Chronicle - June 14, 1915
Mrs. Albertina Adolphson, the wife of A. P. Adolphson, a well known bookkeeper and accountant, and one of the pioneer women of Leadville, passed
away early yesterday morning at the family home, 144 South Toledo Avenue, of an attack which had rendered her unconscious Sunday afternoon. Death was attributed to diabetes. Mrs. Adolphson was 60 years old. The ailment which caused her death had affected Mrs. Adolphson for over a year, but she had not been critically sick at any time until Sunday. On Saturday she had celebrated her sixtieth birthday, enjoying the anniversary happily with her husband and daughters, Miss Ella Adolphson and Mrs. John W. McMahon, the wife of the county clerk, and the McMahon children. She felt in excellent health during the day. On Sunday afternoon when Mrs. McMahon and the grandchildren were at the Adolphson home again, Mrs. Adolphson complained of not feeling very well, and lay down. A short time later she was seized with a sudden attack which caused her to lose consciousness. She did not come to again, and shortly after four o'clock yesterday morning she passed quietly away. Mrs. Adolphson had lived in Leadville since 1879 and she was loved for her gentle and kindly ways by a large circle of friends. She was born in Sweden on June 5, 1855. At the age of nine she came to the United States, and ultimately settled with her parents in Michigan. In 1879 she came to Leadville, which had since been her home. She was married here to
Mr. Adolphson on January 9, 1884. Six children were born to them, of whom two survive, two sons and two daughters having died here. These two
children are Mrs. J. W. McMahon and Miss Ella Adolphson, who lives at the family home. Mrs. F. W. Catlon, formerly a resident here who recently
removed to Denver, is a daughter of Mrs. Adolphson by a former marriage.
She arrived in the city last night after receiving word of her mother's unexpected sickness and death. Mrs. Adolphson's mother, Mrs. Christina
Carlson; a brother, Victor Carlson; and a sister, Mrs. Isabell Penthena, all reside in Pueblo. The mother, who is an energetic and active woman despite her advanced age of over 80 years, visited at the Adolphson home for several weeks until only a short time ago, when she returned to her own home in Pueblo. Word was sent to the relatives in Pueblo, and they are expected to arrive here today or tomorrow. The Adolphsons are widely known in Leadville through their long residence in the city, and Mrs. Adolphson had endeared herself to all who knew her. Her sudden passing yesterday morning caused general regret among her wide circle of friends. Arrangements were made yesterday afternoon to hold funeral services at the family home at two o'clock, Wednesday afternoon.

Thursday's Daily - Mrs. Albertina Adolphson, the late wife of A. P. Adolphson, who passed away early Monday morning following a brief illness,
was laid at rest in the I. O. O. F. cemetery yesterday afternoon. At the residence at 144 South Toledo Avenue, where the services were held the attendance of friends who paid their last respects to the pioneer woman, was large, filling the home to overflowing. The casket was banked deeply with flowers which were their tributes. The Rev. S. E. Johnson, pastor of the Swedish Lutheran church, conducted the services, assisted by a large choir in which he also sang and which was composed of Mrs. Oscar Bonthron, Mrs. Fred Moosberg, Miss Judith Nord, Charles Nordberg and Melchoir Nordberg, who were accompanied by Mrs. Albert Peterson. The beautiful selections, which
formed the services with the minister's consoling address and prayer, were "Jerusalem, Jerusalem" and "We Shall Sleep But Not Forever." At the close of the house services, the floral tributes which had surrounded the bier, were conveyed at the head of the cortege to the cemetery in a motor car. A large part of the attending friends drove to the Odd Fellows Cemetery, making a long procession as they passed up Harrison Avenue to Ninth street. At the graveside, the Rev. Johnson observed the burial rites of the church and the choir sang a closing hymn, "Jesus, Lover of My Soul." The pall bearers were A. G. Thomson, Axel Moosberg, Joseph W. Clarke, J. A. Boline, George Cramer and C. E. Tallman. Mrs. Isabell Penthena, of Pueblo, a sister of Mrs. Adolphson, and Mrs. F. W. Catlon, of Denver, a daughter by a former marriage, arrived in the city to attend the services. Mrs. Christina Carlson, of Pueblo, the mother of Mrs. Adolphson, and Victor Carlson, a
brother, were unable to come owing to sickness, Mrs. Carlson being a woman of advanced age. Mrs. Harold Herr, a warm friend of the family, also
attended from Salida. Mrs. Adolphson is survived in Leadville by her husband, and two daughters, Mrs. J. W. McMahon, the wife of the county clerk, and Miss Ella Adolphson.
