Thanks, Linda.

Elsa Cleburne is buried in a small rural cemetery in Pueblo County, CO, where she grew up. I have the Pueblo newspaper announcement of her death in Salem, OR, and her body being shipped to Colorado for burial and the names of her survivors.

I'm not sure when she moved to Oregon. I know she's in Colorado in 1948 and her daughter was baptized here in 1949-50, so the mother may have still been here then too.The daughter begins high school in Eugene, OR, in 1950. (Elsa was divorced from her husband 1940-42.)

At the time of Elsa's death, her brother, Benton O. Youngren, was living in Springfield, OR, so she may have been living with or near him before her death. The rest of her family was in Colorado. Her "usual residence" per the death cert was 1527 N. 16th, Springfield, OR. She worked as a lens grinder. She entered the hospital April 9, 1952 and died June 28, 1952. I don't know if there would have been an obit in Oregon.
