Most obit's in the Kokomo Daily Tribune were of the shorter death notice
variety, as above, and did not include a lot of details.  Only a few did.
I skimmed issues of that paper to April 19, 1897 but did not find any
further information (more extensive obit., family thanks, etc.) about
Edna.
Initially, birth year calculated as 1872 from 1880 census: US Census
