This is the only adult picture that I have found of Mary Elizab4eth Walkinshaw Wilson. I was sitting in the Natrona County Library using a computer looking through newspapers for anything on Mary's death. To find this article I was totally astonished, mainly with the picture. I believe it was approximately 5 years ago. It was almost like she wanted to be found and said, "I knew you would find me eventually! Surprise!" This article reads:
Chicago Daily Tribune (1872-1922): Dec 29, 1921; ProQuest Historical Newspapers: Chicago Tribune pg. 3
KILLED
MRS. ROY M. WILSON.
Mrs. Roy M. Wilson, wife of Dr. Wilson, a dentist with offices at 3424 Sheffield avenue, was accidentally killed by the explosion of a revolver her husband had been cleaning while the Wilson family was paying a Christmas visit at the home of Mrs. Wilson's parents in Blanchard, Ia., according to reports received here. She was buried yesterday at Blanchard. There are two children, Roy Jr., 7 years old, and Mary, 4 years old.
