Lena was the daughter of Aaron W. Johnson and Amelia P. Dorman.

On July 1, 1918 in Burlington, VT she married Vern Emmons Howard, son of Charles H. Howard and Emily H. Stockwell.

Their children were Phyllis J, Dean Emmons, Donald Frederick, and Carl Eugene.

In 1920 in Canaan, VT they owned a Dry Goods Clothing store. In 1930 they were in Paris, ME where Vern was the Proprietor of another store and Lena was a Clerk. By 1935 they had moved to Colebrook, NH where they opened Howards Restaurant on Main Street. They operated it until they sold it to son Dean & his wife Jean in 1948, who operated it until their retirement in the late 1980's.

Her husband, Vern, predeceased her on Sep 29, 1953 in Lancaster, NH.

Age: 64yrs

Cause of Death: Pulmonary Carcinoma - Breast Cancer


Note:
I have found the burial places of all their children, except Phyllis. Her husband, Rodney Davis, died after her on Apr 4, 1985 in Berlin, VT. He was cremated and I can't find if he was buried. I can't find a death record for Phyllis.
