On Thursday monrning she started her little sister off to school and then finished up a large washing, apparently in good health. At noon her father came in from his work and not seeing her, ate a lunch and went back to his work and on his and the children coming in at night, she was found on the bed unconscious and not able to speak in which condition she remained until Friday monring without moving hand or foot until death came without a struggle. > > > Thanks so much for this one, Karen. Louiza is one of "my" Stonebrakers. I didn't know what happened to her except I couldn't find her after the 1880 census. Marianne :-D
