She was wife of Nathan Ward Fowler and mother of 12 children. I have death certificate which has missing info. Have been trying for parentage, exact birthplace, and sibling ID for 12 years now. Was told that likely location of said obituary might be the Roy West library at DePauw University. Would be greatful for a look-up if possible. Thank you.
