Bessie, then pregnant, and three of her five children contracted measles. 
Bessie gave birth to Robert Eugene on April 23, 1926 stillborn.  Bessie died 
May 1, 1926 and was temporarily placed in a moseleum until the family was well 
enough to attend her and Robert's funeral.  Doris Lucille, age 1 d: May 6, 
1926 and placed with her mother and newborn brother. Three children survived.  
They were removed from the moseleum and buried. Robert and Doris are buried in 
the same casket with Bessie, however, there is no mention of them on the 
tombstone. Newspaper publications confirm this information.

Clancy Ulissis Ames died three years later from what many said was a broken 
heart.  The children were raised by Bessie's family.
