After living in Gaylord and Concordia, Kansas, from 1886 to 1892 she returned with her parents to Hamilton where she has lived ever since.
She attended the Hamilton public schools and was graduated with the Class of 1904, and later attended Park College.
In June, 1913, she married James M. Hill who died July 10, 1934. The following children were born to them - Loraine (wife of Marion O. Ridings), Virginia and Jack Filson.

presence of her first grandchild during the last few weeks of her life.
Aleda, as she was commonly called, was always active in this community especially in her church, Sunday School and missionary society.
She united with the Presbyterian Church of Hamilton when about ten years of age, in the frame church building, and continued her memberhship in the Federated Church.
