NOTES:

Olive Eunice Ogg was born May 1876 in Wisconsin, the daughter of Otis P. Woodward and Ellen (Sawyer) Woodward

She married Mason Churchill Ogg, the son of William Marshall Ogg and Harriet Churchill Ogg.

They had 3 children: (these are from Iowa Birth Records)
(1) Helen S. Ogg born April 16, 1907 -- She died April 24, 1923

(2) Wallace Elmer Ogg born September 18, 1908 -- He died Novemember 13, 1992

(3) Frances Bryant Ogg born December 10, 1915. She married Robert Beesley. Frances (Ogg) Beesley died April 11, 2001 in North Carolina. *North Carolina death records listed as Frances Ogg Beesley.

Note* I have their surname spelled WOODWARD because that’s what the tombstone for Otis and Ellen has, as does Otis’s mother Olive Bryant Woodward.

The Osage Cemetery lists them as Woodard, but tracing back into the 1860 Census records for Otis’s dad…his birth record is also Woodward.
