Other Events and Attributes:

• Also Known As: Annie
• Cause of Death: Cerebral hemorrhage
• Occupation: Housewife
• Research Notes: Dates are confusing on death certificate. Date of death is given as 7 June 1921, but in the physicians statement section, he certifies that he attended her from 7 June to 9 June 1921 and that he last saw her alive on 9 June. Burial date is given as 15 June 1921, so the death date given by Elaine Schoelzel (14 June 1921) is almost certainly incorrect. Age at death is given as 63 years, 3 months, and 23 days, which would put her birth on 12 Feb 1855 (given 7 June 1921 death). According to 1900 census, Anna had given birth to 8 children, of which 5 were surviving. A son named Robert, born in May 1880 is listed, which doesn’t match any other source. Illinois Statewide Marriage Index lists surname as “Oessmann.”
