Wife of Abe Grooms. Seems to have died shortly after the birth of her last child.
Orpha was born in September 1869 in Illinois, her maiden name was Lockwood. She had her last baby in December 1899, and her husband was listed as a widower in the September 1900 census with all children still with him. The three youngest ones were eventually adopted out. That would put her death between Dec. 1899 and Sept. 1900. Melinda 47626717
