Text: BIR-DEATH: Memorial Service notice; Laughlin-Hoevet Funeral Home; Wymore, Nebr.
MARRIAGE: License; Kansas Central Division of Vital Statistics; D no. 68723; P.J. 4333.
Kathryn's mother died when she was six months old. As a baby she was sent to live with a relative in Western Nebraska. A few months later, her sisters Grace and Inez went out on the train to fetch her; she cried most of the way home to Wymore despite being walked up and down the train by her sisters.
She went to Lincoln to live with her sister Grace and husband Cecil Clark, also a railroad man. She went to Lincoln High from where she graduated in 1925. Her father sent his Buick up to Lincoln so Grace could drive Kathryn to school.
For a short period, she went with her sister to Atchison, Kansas where Clark had a run for the railroad. Mrs. Case, an old maid schoolteacher, taught Grace and Kathryn to play the piano in Wymore. They played duets in Lincoln.
Kathryn worked for a while at a department store in Lincoln (Miller & Paine) before getting married. She was briefly married to Albert Malcolm; she refused to live with him after the honeymoon and the marriage was annulled.
From 1939-47 she worked at the Davey Cash Coal Co., 1750 R. St., Lincoln. At first she assisted husband Leonard Davey in running the coal yard. Starting in 1942, while Leonard was in Wichita, Kansas doing war work with Boeing, she managed the yard. For a few months in 1943, she also worked in Wichita. She resumed management of the yard after the war when Leonard began to spend more time at the grain elevators.
She was divorced from Leonard in July 1948. She married Herman Warnke on 24 Sept. 1956.
Selden Davey remembers that, as a pledge in 1927, he was required to go to a house party, but he didn't know how to dance. He persuaded Leonard to have Kathryn teach him how to dance in a place with a nickleodeon.
Kathryn was an expert sewer and crocheter. Her son has a large tablecloth that she crocheted. In addition to making some of her own clothes, she often made doll clothes for nieces and others.
