Her death was attributed to chronic nephritis (kidney disease) and a spot of gangrene on one of her heels.
She was thought at the time of her passing to be a widow from Indiana, but the census records at the asylum all list her as having been born in KY and those that mention her marital status indicate she was single. She is consistently noted to have been born in 1838 or 1839.
