Notes 
Individual:
Lawrence Edgar Harding met Lena Gertrude Utley by mail. There was an ad for mates in a magaz
ine. She came from Tennessee and had a southern accent. The neighbors made fun of her and it made him mad. (Someone told me she came from St. Joseph Missouri - but I did not list my source.)

She is not buried in the Prospect Hill Cemetary in O'Neill, Nebraska.
