Samuel Wescott TRUMBULL and his wife Harriet Townsend Wells TRUMBULL came to Iola, Allen Co., Kansas in 1867. According to family lore, Harriet died there on August 25, 1870, age 72. However, I can find no record of her death or burial in Iola recores. Would like to know where she died and was buried. Samuel died April 2,1877, at age 87 of pneumonia, and his daughter Calista Trumbull THRALL, died April 5, 1877, at age 45, also of pneumonia. Both succumbed from exposure during a buggy ride in extreme weather. Samuel was buried at Mulberry, KS, Samuel Wescott TRUMBULL and his wife Harriet Townsend Wells TRUMBULL came to Iola, Allen Co., Kansas in 1867. Harriet died there on August 25, 1870, age 72.
