Katie J. Nov. 1876 23 Wd. 2 2 No Occupation Sunshine C. July 1895 5 Olive Dec. 1897 2 Kate was a widow by this census. She very well may have remarried again but I am fairly certain that she died by 1906 or so and I don't know what happened to the girls. Sunshine is married to Homer Griffin by 1910 and Olive married Carl Milbrandt according to some photos that I found today. I wonder though if this J.K. Street is her because if she were a widow, why would she have gone back to her maiden name? There are some strange circumstances here and now I am thinking that she might not have been a widow at all. Maybe she divorced the man. In a letter I have: Waco June the 22 1897 ..... dear Lizzie your letter gave me the facts of my dear Katie, as you Ma cantt talk about it. with out being excited. I feel sorrow for her an my poor boy as it is a hard trial to them boath. She seam to be more reconcile now. then when she first come...... your grand ma that loves you. M. A. Long So maybe this Villepique was abusive? Just kicking around some thoughts.
