To them were born three children: Mark, now of Des Moines; Lorin, who died in 1920; and Mrs. Oliver Christiansen (Marjory), of Seattle, Wash.
Mrs. McNulty had a wide acquaintance over the county, and all who knew her loved her for her kind, affectionate nature, and admired the efficiency with which she did her home work and whatever community work she was engaged in.
