When a small child she came with her parents to Keya Paha County where she attended rural schools and grew to womanhood.
She was married to Ney Luse at Ainsworth, Nebraska on October 3, 1907, and to them eight children were born. In 1914 they took a homestead seven miles west of Meadville in Brown County. After proving up on the homestead, they moved to Ainsworth where Mr. Luse was employed by the Standard Oil Company. In 1916 they bought a farm two miles west of Meadville in Keya Paha County. Mr. Luse died in 1943, but Mrs. Luse and the family continued to operate the farm.
