Housewife

Alt. Birth

Her place of birth was not given on the death certificate.

Marriage
Shared note

They were married by H. C. Smith, Elder.
Did I copy this date correctly? There is the date 8 Feb 1904 in the Marriage License Index, Lampasas County, TX, compiled by Kay Neeley, Rush McMillon, Sorted & printed by John Patterson, Groom's list, p. 127, located at the Lampasas Library.

Shared note

Were she and Albert actually divorced? There is an Albert Sarrell living in Howard County, Texas that might be her husband. He was listed as divorced. She was listed as a widow in this census, but that is not unusual in such cases. He appeared to be the correct age. He was working as a pipe fitter for a pipe line.

She died of carcinoma of the rectum and colon after a period of three years. The death certificate says the date of birth was 8 Apr 1883. Her residence at the time of death was Precinct #3 of Pecos County, Texas, five miles south of Bakersfield, Texas. Her death certificate says she was born in Texas. It says she was married to Albert Sorrels. Her parents were J. P Sorrels, born in Arkansas, and Straley, birthplace unknown. Mrs. Chas. F. Farrell of Waco was the informant. It says the place of burial, cremation, or removal was McCamey, Texas. She was a housewife. She last worked at that occupation Nov. 1938.
