She was one of a family of 13 children of which one sister (Mrs. Harold Chaffee), and 2 brothers (Mike, Adams, N. Y., and Ben, Croghan), survive.

Funeral services were held at the New Bremen Church conducted by S. C. Yoder, after which her body was laid to rest in the Croghan A. M. Church Cemetery.
