Mariposa Gazette, May 13, 1943 
“Mrs. Mabel Boysen, Yosemite Resident, Summoned by Death

Funeral rites are to be conducted at the Tiscornia, Ivers and Alcorn chapel in 
Mariposa this afternoon, Thursday, May 13, at two o’clock for Mrs. Mabel 
Boysen, who died at her home in Yosemite very suddenly last Monday night [May 
10].

The services will be conducted by Las Mariposas Chapter No. 200, Order of the 
Eastern Star, of which chapter she had been an active member for many years.

Following the services the body will be removed to Merced, where cremation will 
follow.  The ashes will be returned to Mariposa to be placed beside those of 
her husband, whose grave is in the Masonic cemetery.

Mrs. Boysen had been a resident of Yosemite Valley for 44 years.  She, with two 
girl companions, came to Yosemite in 1899 from San Francisco, where she was a 
teacher.

Pictures she had taken in the valley were taken to the Boysen studio for 
developing and here was where the romance began that resulted in her marriage 
to Julius T. Boysen in 1900.  They were married in Lemoore, the home of her 
parents.

Mr. Boysen died in May, 1939, and since that time Mrs. Boysen had carried on 
the photographic work in the Valley.  She had been in excellent health up until 
her death.

Surviving is a daughter, Mrs. Ellen St. Clair, and two granddaughters, of 
Sacramento.”
