Exploratory Data Analysis : Clara E. (Cook) Lambertson (1848-1943)



Clara E. (Cook) Lambertson (1848-1943) was my maternal 3rd-great grandmother.  What follows is an exploratory analysis of the biographical data I have discovered about her.

1. Vital Records

     1.1. Birth Certificate

          Clara was born November 16, 1848 in Preble County, Ohio1, 2.  The State of Ohio did not require birth certificates at this time.

          1.1.1. Birth Notice in Newspaper

               If Clara's birth was mentioned in a newspaper, I've not yet located it. Will need to check with state and local archives to see if they have any newspapers of the time period.

          1.1.2. Bible Record

               I'm not aware of any surviving Cook family Bible that mentions Clara's birth.  Will continue to reach out to extended family in hopes that one can be located.

          1.1.3. Baptismal Record

               I'm not aware of any baptismal record for Clara.  She was a member of the Quaker church and the Dunkard church later in life.

          1.1.4. Adoption Record

               There is no indication that Clara was adopted.

     1.2. Marriage License

          Clara's marriage record to Cary W. Lambertson has not been located.  My database has the date as October 1, 1869 in Butler County, Ohio, without a source listed.  However, a search of Ohio marriage records in Butler and other nearby counties has not turned up any evidence.  Will continue to seek out a marriage record.

          1.2.1 Marriage Notice in Newspaper

               Once I can confirm their actual wedding date, I will be able to search to see if mention was made in any local newspapers for their marriage.

          1.2.2. Anniversary Notice

               Clara and Cary's 25th wedding anniversary would have been October 1, 1894.  Will need to search contemporary newspaper accounts to see if mention was made of any anniversary celebration.  Will add this to my "to-do" list.

          1.2.3. Divorce Decree

               There is no indication of divorce, will need to search court records in Hamilton and Madison Counties, Indiana to make sure there aren't any records I might have missed.  Will add this to my list of "to-do" items for my next research trip.

     1.3. Death Certificate

          Clara died January 23, 1943 in Atlanta, Hamilton County, Indiana2,3.  Her death certificate listed the cause of death as arteriosclerlosis.

          1.3.1. Obituary in Newspaper

               Clara's obituary appeared in the January 25, 1943 edition of the Noblesville, Indiana Daily Ledger3, as well as the January 23, 1943 edition of the Elwood, Indiana Call-Leader4.

          1.3.2. Funeral Home Records

               According to her obituary4, the Schaffer funeral home in Atlanta, Indiana handled the arrangements.  Will need to contact the local historical society to see if any records of the funeral home still exist.  Will add this to my list of "to-do" items.

          1.3.3. Tombstone Photograph

               Clara's tombstone in the Elwood City Cemetery has been photographed5  The link to her memorial at FindAGrave is here.

Obituary : Maud (Lambertson) Fisher Hayse, 1952

Maud F. Hayse obituary, Register-News, Mt. Vernon, Illinois, 10 April 1952, page 2.


MAUD F. HAYSE
DIES AT AGE 73;
RITES INCOMPLETE

Mrs. Maud Fisher Hayse, of 909 Park Avenue, died at 11:45 a.m. yesterday at Jefferson County Memorial Hospital, where she had been a patient for the past three days.

Her age was 73 years, nine months and 20 days.

Funeral arrangements were incomplete.  However, friends may call at Myers Chapel after 10 a.m. Friday.

Mrs. Hayse was born June 19, 1878 in Ohio, the daughter of Carry and Clara (Cook) Lambertson.

She was first married to Frank Fisher, who preceded her in death in June, 1928.  She was married October 19, 1931 to W.H. Hayse, who survives.

Mrs. Hayse was a member of the Nazarene church.

Besides her husband, she is survived by two sons, Vernon C. Fisher of Anderson, Ind. and H.A. Fisher of Mt. Vernon; a sister, Mrs. Lola Whisler of Arcadia, Ind.; two brothers, Charles Lambertson of Elwood, Ind. and Bert Lambertson of Mt. Vernon, Ind.; 11 grandchildren and eight great grandchildren.


She was preceded in death by her parents, a brother, Sam, and two sons, Lester and Ralph E. Fisher.

----
Located this obituary of my maternal 2nd-great grandaunt, Maud (Lambertson) Fisher Hayse in the Mt. Vernon Register-News.  This obituary gave me the date of her marriage to her second husband, and also the death month of her first husband.

Her second husband is referred to as Will Hayse in my notes, will need to see what else I can find about him.  The obituary didn't list where they were married, but it was likely Illinois, so will need to see if I can locate a copy.
