Trying to locate obit and/or date of death for my gr grandmother Margaret Elisabeth (Kehl) Mathews/Matthews who died in 1912 at about 36 years of age. She is buried at the Ashland Cemetery, Ashland, Cass Co., IL.
Headstone gives only years of birth and death, no specific dates.
Have not located her on 1910 census, but did locate her husband George M. Mathews/Matthews at the Cherokee State Hospital in Cherokee Co., Iowa in 1910.
In the 1900 census George & Margaret were in Greene Co., IL.
I do not know the date Margaret died, nor the location. She may have been in Cass, Morgan, or Greene counties at the time of her death since she had relatives in those counties.
Her family had been in Nortonville(or Murrayville)area, Morgan Co., IL since mid 1850's.
Have one old photo of her grave right after burial. There were no leaves on the trees so I am guessing it was January, February, March, October, November, or December of 1912.
George died March 3, 1914 and the little notice from the White Hall, Greene Co., paper only mentions she died before him.
I'd so much appreciate any info anyone may have on Margaret Mathews/Matthews.
Thanks in advance!
