  • Notes 
    • Anyone with provable evidence of her exact birth name, date and place of death and surname at time of death is kindly asked to please contact us here at Drollingergenealogy.com.

      She identifies herself as 'Lucia K Monroe' in the 1930 Census.
      It appears her birth name is probably 'Lucia Katherine Kite' where Lucy is a nickname of Lucia and her middle name is Katherine after her mother.

      She is identified as 'Lucy Cathern Kite' in her daughter, Janet's obituary. Her middle name spelling of 'Cathern' may be incorrect.
