The memorial card

From the funeral card

To the Memory of Mrs. Curtis Billing who died Oct. 30, 1900 age 54 years

Her own given name does not appear on the card — "Mrs. Curtis Billing" follows the period convention of using the husband's name. Brian's research (below) suggests she may be the Julia Billings enumerated as Curtis Billings's wife in 1880.

Brian's research

The 1880 census of the 15th Ward, Rochester, Monroe County, New York enumerates the household:

  • Curtis Billings (self, 33, street-car driver, born Vermont)
  • Julia Billings (wife, 32, house keeper, born New York)
  • William Billings (son, 3)
  • Asa Billings (daughter, 1)

The 1900 census indexes Curtis H. Billings, 54, born Vermont, in the 3rd Ward of Rochester, Monroe County, New York.
