Died of "Dropsy"- a.k.a. Congestive Heart Failure
1st Wife of John C. BIEBIGHEISER
Mother of John Henry BIEBIGHEISER and Emma Louise Biebigheiser MOKE.
There is a family story that Catharine may be adopted. The story goes that when she was an infant was with her parents and they were traveling in a buggy, wagon or carriage and collided with another buggy, wagon, or carriage and were all thrown out. Catharine's parents were killed but she somehow survived. She supposedly was either adopted by another couple that came along after the accident or that the couple they had the accident with adopted her.
I don't know how much truth there is to this story and how to verify it.
