Not Different Enough

There goes my pet theory — that Bertha Nolte Campbell lived to a ripe old age, stepping out from the parade of untimely death that otherwise constituted the Ainsworth branch of the Nolte family.

Now I've just come across evidence that she died in December 1929, which would make her about 37 years old. She is buried in the Salem Methodist Church cemetery just over the Porter County line.

No information about the cause of death. No mention of any children either. Perhaps I will find out more when I get to 1929 in the Hobart newspapers. But that's far in the future.

So, just a little depressing news to end a gloomy day.
