She came to Ness County in 1886 when her father homesteaded near Ransom. Alice taught school several years before her marriage. She taught Sunday School for many years and took an active part in church work. She had many interests, chief of which was raising beautiful flowers. Anything of beauty appealed to her-music, fancy work, good books. She never complained even though she was in failing health for some time. Patience, kindness and unassuming dignity were qualities which endeared her to family and friends.
