Viola Carver Longfellow was my great grandmother, the father of Henry B. Longfellow, my
dad's father. Census reports conflict -- one says she was born in Iowa, the other
Illinois about 1862. She lived in Monticello, MN after marrying John Henry Longfellow.
They had 6 children, Mildred Parkinson, Margarett, John Carver, Hellen, Clarence and Harry
Bertram. I've researched the kids, and actually if it wasn't for their death
certificates I wouldn't even know her maiden name.
Her maiden name was reported several children's California death certificates. Still
I have been unable to find much about her -- there are no matches for her parents that I
can find in nearby states.
Would appreciate if anyone has any knowledge.
