Mother’s obituary in Monticello newspaper 22 Jun 1917]: 6 children born (‘all of whom are living except 1’); survivors: husband, 5 sons & daughters, Willard of Indianapolis, IN; Elmer, Florence, Edna & Bernice of Urbana [IL]’;

1900 Piatt Co., IL census at Monticello (Grant St.) (Monticello township) [E.D. 131; Sh. 13’ ll. 22-27]: age 3, born IL;

1920 Champaign Co., IL census [E.D. 7; Sh. 7B; ll. 77-79]: age 23 — living with uncle, Martin Boots’ family, as well as her own;

Sister, Florence’s obituary ["Monticello, IL" newspaper: 22-XII-1921]: ‘died at her home in Phoenix, AZ, buried in Monticello [IL], pallbearers: Dale & Charkey Plunk, of Monticello; W. T.

Johnson, Martin Boots and Richard Minor, of Champaign [IL]; survivors: father; 2 brothers, Willard & Elmer, & 2 sisters, Mrs Edna Winningham & Miss Bernice Shaffer, all of Phoenix [AZ] — mother & sister, Mary, died … years ago’

An SSDI reference for ‘Edna Winningham’ gives SS#249-86-1253 (issued. OK -1951), b. 11 Dec 1899, d. Mar 1980 at no known place, but last benefit paid in zip code 73122 Oklahoma City, OK: this Edna Winningham? (note birthdate 3 years later than known from census; also note that daughter, Rosemary, is in 1947 Oklahoma City, OK city directory); however, exhaustive research for ‘Edna Winningham’ in Oklahoma City fails to find her; thus ‘benefit’ doubtless to an estate beneficiary

Sister-in-law, florence E.

Johnson, Martin Boots and Richard Minor, of Champaign [IL]; survivors: father; 2 brothers,

Willard & Elmer, & 2 sisters, Mrs Edna Winningham & Miss Bernice Shaffer, all of Phoenix [AZ] — mother & sister, Mary, died … years ago’;
