She was the Oldest of 7 children.
Aunt Clara had 4 Children that I know of.
Bessie - Oliver - Joseph C - Andrew J.
Aunt Clara was my Grandpa Harry's Aunt.
Aunt Clara's Death Certificate was very detailed indeed.
My Mom remembers the 4013 Jonestown Road property where she tripped over that garden hoe and fractured her left hip and had even more complications. Myocardial Degeneration for 7 days.
We also call Jonestown Road - Progress Avenue or out "On 22". We have several Names for this road growing up. This is a snapshot of this same road.
Abraham her husband's Death Certificate says that is where he died at in 1932.
I'm assuming for now that their daughter Bessie since she was the Informant for her Father's Death Certificate, Bessie had her Mother, Aunt Clara move with her up on North Sixth Street in Harrisburg.
Death Certificate also says, she stopped working on November 3rd, 1933.
