Grace was only three and a half years old when her mother died which was why her stepmother was so influential in her life.

In the 1900 U.S. Federal Census, her occupation is listed as a dressmaker's apprentice. Grace is also recorded as the niece of Peter and Mary (Hansen) Wind with whom she lived.

By 1920/1930, her 75 (then 85) year old father had been widowed for a second time, and she is found living with him and caring for both him and their shared home.

Grace remained in the family home after her father died in 1932. She died when she was 87 years old. Her brother Arthur died three months later.
