Spencer Reporter
9/25/1912This is what the City of Spencer has her as Betty Traver she is buried in Block 2, Lot 40 and Grave 1.
The courthouse records says she was 75 years, 3 months and 19 days old.
Her Father is Gideon Alrich, mother was unknown but mom was born in Vermont.
The information was given by Mrs. Ruth Stolt of Odebolt. She is buried at Riverside. I have not been to Cemetery but will try to find the headstone.
