The funeral card

From the funeral card

Funeral card of Alice O. Hill, who died February 22, 1928, age 59 years, 1 month, 3 days. There is a picture of her in the center and a poem at the bottom.

The contributor writes: "The house they came from had many other photos of relatives around the state of Iowa, so these are probably Iowans as well."

Our archive's index entry for this record gives her years and places as 1869 Illinois – 1928 Iowa.

Brian's note

From the census I found you can see that Alice was born in Illinois, her parents born England, but she lived and died in Colfax, Blanchard, Iowa.

The 1920 census (Page County, Iowa — Blanchard; Colfax) enumerates:

  • Alice Hill (51, widow, born Illinois, parents born England)
  • Thomas Hill (28, born Iowa, father born Ohio)
  • Annie Hill (24, born Iowa, father born Ohio)
  • Kellie Hill (female, 20, born Iowa, father born Ohio)
  • John Hill (17, born Iowa, father born Ohio)
