Elizabeth Ada SCHERER (aka "Bessie"), born Aug 1891, in Union Co., IA. Need her father's given name and any info on his parents & siblings. Need Bessie's birth record also.
Bessie's mother was Florence Mary Clarinda WITHROW/WITHEROW....however, she may have used her stepfather's surname, TRUSSLER, when she was married in Union Co around 1889 or 1890. Would like marriage date if possible.
Bessie's father must have died, or maybe the parents were divorced. By the 1895 Iowa State Census, Florence and Bessie were residing alone in Ft Madison, Lee Co., IA. Florence was 19 yrs old and Bessie was only 3 yrs old in 1895.
Florence then married second to Frank Lynn BOYER, circa 1895-96, probably in Ft Madison, Lee Co, IA, but so far have been unable to find record
