Elizabeth Law Allen, 74, Passed Away Monday at Rock Springs
Elizabeth Law Allen, who first came to Wyoming in 1869, and the greater part of a useful and benevolent life, has since been spent in this state, passed away at the Wyoming General hospital in Rock Springs last Monday, following an illness of over a year's duration.
Since 1912, Mrs. Allen with her son and daughter have been engaged in ranching on the Green river, and of recent years have been in charge of the M. N. Larsen ranch at Linwood, Utah. Her long residence in that section has won for her a multitude of friends, who can recount many incidents of her life, where she has ever been ready and willing to extend to the less fortunate her motherly advice and counsel and womanly tenderness in administering to the sick and discouraged, who by her encouragement and care have overcome, seeming unsurmountable obstacles of life, and have been greatly benefitted by her helpfulness.
Since 1910 she has been a widow, her husband, John C. Allen, passing away on May 18th of that year. She with her son and daughter have battled the discouragements of life with a fortitude and determination that has brought them a fair share of this world's goods, she never been discouraged, but with true intent, given her through Scotch parentage, she ever went forward, being one of God's inspired and undaunted, of that pioneer spirit that has done much for the future of the west.
The remains were prepared for shipment at the Rogan Mortuary in Rock Springs, and Tuesday evening were taken to Salt Lake City, Utah, where on Wednesday they were laid to rest in Mt. Olivet cemetery by the side of her husband. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. Buckley of the Episcopal church of that city.

In 1880 she returned to Rock Springs, where she was united in marriage to John C. Allen on October 20, 1880.
