Thank you Don, I did find something about Leatha in the newspaper for Nov. 7 1916. She died of a heart attack. She was married to Fred Ferguson. Living with her was her sister Christina. Edna was Leatha's daughter.I think Mildred was Fred's sister. I found out that Fred remarried shortly after Leatha's death to Fern Phipps and he moved out of state to Dearborn Michiagn. The oldest girl Helen was about 2 when her mother died. I think they took her to Michiagn with them.They left the 2 month old baby Edna with his sister and brother in law. Counting back I would guess Leatha and Fred Ferguson married sometime in 1913.
Thank you for all your help Don. All that snow keeping you from hunting?
