Lulu's Obit has an error in it. Her first husband died in 1919...not 1924. Her 1920 U.S.F.C. also shows her as a widow in 1920 (see census record below). Her first husband is attached to her page and also shows 1919 as year of death. She is living with their two children with her deceased husband's parents in 1920.
