Note on Husband: William Henry BABB - shared note
According to papers sent to me by Vera Knowlton, William Babb was a painter and lived to be 99 years old, in Lawrence Kansas.
Note on Wife: Laura Matilda DRAKE - shared note
Reuben and Matilda's fifth "grown child" mentioned in newspaper report of their murders. She was living in Iowa in 1888.
The copy of Reuben's Bible pages with Laura entered is very faint--almost illegible, but Laura Born Sept 7, 1866 is visible.
