Edith JOLLY #29025

____ - ____

Historical Notes

Tradition has it she joined a wagon train to Oregon and was never heard from again. However, on the 1900 census of Madison County, Missouri, her mother declared that she had had three children (these would have been Sarah, Rachel, and Edith), and that only two were still living. It is known that Sarah and Rachel would have been the ones still living, therefore the question is posed whether news of Edith's fate had been received by the family at some point.
