At an early age her family moved to Webster county, Iowa, where a greater part of her early life was spent. The family later moved to South Dakota where she was united in marriage to Louis Enburg. To this union one daughter, Nellie Margaret, was born. Later she married Charles Cowles of Riverton, with whom she lived until his death about ten years ago. Upon coming to Riverton she united with the local Methodist church and remained with this affiliation until her death, although for the past several years she was unable to attend the services on account of poor health. She is survived by her daughter, Nellie Maragaret Smith; one stepson, Lawrence E. Cowles; one sister, Mrs. Mary Jane White of Riverton, and number of other relatives and friends. Funeral services were conducted at the home Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock by Rev. H. P. Grinyer, pastor of the Methodist church. The remains were laid to rest in the Riverton cemetery.
