Here are some newspaper items you may not have seen. One is a mention of one of Lovina's sisters who was alive at least until 1922. The second is an obit for Anna Ewing Wilson and her son's wife's mother, all in the same story. Hope these help!
This is a sister of Lovina Wertz Ewing – she was alive when her sister died. She was 4 when Lavina was 10.
