She was born in Butcher's Run in Deutschtown, which was then in Reserve Township.

In 1870 she and her parents and six siblings lived there in a house in Reserve Township, Allegheny County, PA. Her father worked as a tanner--he owned real property worth $9000 and personal property worth $1500.

In 1880 she and her parents and sister Emma lived in a house at 107 First Street in Allegheny, PA, probably in what is now Allegheny Commons Park. First Street became Foreland Street when Allegheny was annexed by Pittsburgh in 1906.

In 1900 she and her four children lived in a house they were renting at 814 Green (now Suismon) Street in Allegheny, just down the street from her sister Ida and her family. She worked as a dressmaker.

In 1910 the five of them, plus Olive's husband and their son, lived in a house they were renting at 1804 East Street in Pittsburgh, just two houses from her sister Ida and her family. Ethel worked as a copyist for a mercantile agency, Raymond Bowman as a streetcar conductor, Ruby as an insulator for a cable company and her son Raymond as a chef in a restaurant.

In 1920 she, her son Raymond, and a boarder, 28-year-old Laura Bish, lived in a house they were renting at 1925 Saint Ives Street in Pittsburgh. She worked as a shipper for a paper company, Raymond as a printer in an office, and Laura as a forewoman in an office. Her daughter Ruby and her husband and their three children also lived on Saint Ives Street.

In 1930 she lived with her daughter Ruby and her husband and their three children in a house they owned at 1431 Dickson Street in Pittsburgh. Their home was valued at $7000, and they had a radio. She worked as a pastry baker at a wholesale bakery and Ralph worked as an engineer for a steam railroad.

In 1940 she lived in the same place with Ruby and her husband and most of their family--their daughter Ethel and her husband lived in Bellevue. Their home was valued at only $4000 after the Great Depression.

In addition to those linked, there was another sibling: Emma (born September 20, 1865), who married Charles Henry Stewart in 1889 and from at least 1910-1930 lived in Jersey City, NJ.
