I remember Monte and Merle from family reunions. Monte and my mother were 1st cousins. Mary died in Idaho...along with Jenny. It was a diphtheria epidemic that did that. Maria and Mary are two different people. Maria and Caroline are twins and only show up in the census when they were 2 and in Kansas. I can't find a birth OR death certificate for them and no-one seems to know anything about them. If I can find out exactly who went from Kansas to Idaho it might shed more light on whether they died in Kansas or in Idaho. There's not even death certificates I can find for Mary and Jenny in Idaho, but I have pictures of them, and grandma used to tell me about her older sisters.
