Hawarden Independent of May 14, 1914
Death of Bessie McKinley, The home of Mr. and Mrs. James McKinley of Washington township was made desolate last Friday by the death of their only daughter, Bessie from tuberculosis, after an illness of some months. Funeral services were held in the Catholic church in this city at 10:30 Sunday morning. She was born Feb 22, 1892, and grew from childhood to charming young womanhood on the home farm. She was an affectionate daughter, loved and esteemed by all who knew her, and the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community goes out to the hear broken parents in their deep bereavement.

See the obit of her father James Mc Kinley 1848-1928 and her mother Hannah Mrs. James McKinley 1858-1932 for more family details.
