Hi Listers,
I am new to this list and am not sure where to look. My grandmother's sister died in
Nevada at the age of abt. 15, two months after she married. I have included a news article
from her home town. I am searching for her married name, that of her husband and form what
county they lived in. Any ideas would be wonderful.
Thank you,
Carolyn
From Amador Dispatch, Jackson, Amador County, California 10/16/1903:
DEATH OF HATTIE HARDING --
Information has just reached us of the death of Hattie, eldest daughter of William
(Wallace)
Harding of Pine Grove. Deceased left Amador county about a year ago, to
join her mother, Mrs. Frank Onkeson (Dickerson), in Nevada. She was married on June
27th and on August 28th she went to the well to draw a bucket of water, and
it supposed she slipped and fell in, as her body was found in the water.
Her father did not know of her marriage until he heard of her death, and
did not then learn who she married. He is nearly heart-broken over the sad
news. She was a niece of Mrs. Charles Calvin, of Pine Grove. She was well
known in Amador and Calaveras Counties, and was at one time a pupil at St.
Agnes' Academy at Stockton. She leaves a father, mother, one sister and
two brothers besides many friends to mourn her sad and early death.
