This is my great grandmother the birth & death dates are approximate but I believe real close. My Grandpa Colby had told me his mother was buried in Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland, CA. She was killed in a freak accident when a piano fell down a flight of stairs and pinned her to the front door of their home . She was only 40 years old. My Grandfather never got over it. He was 21 at the time and until his death in 1968 he mourned her early death. The area that she is buried is long since overgrown. My mother and I went out to Mountain View a fews years back and it was impossible to get to the very old buriel sites.
