She is the youngest sister of Walter Schoonover, 11 years old, who confessed to plans to kill his father and later denied the confession and stated it was made at the request of his step-mother, Mrs Evalynn Schoonover, the present wife of B F Schoonover. Lots of other articles about the arrests of the Schoonovers and the alleged plot to kill the father. Looks like he married Evalynn right after Gertrude died and there were serious abuse and neglect charges against both B F and Evalynn.
