Napa County Obituaries
Elizabeth Briggs Thompson
This article incorrectly identifies one of
the survivors as Mrs. Albert Lang. It should be Mrs. Alfred Lang of Palo
Alto. This is Hazel Lawley, daughter of Rouetta Thompson Lawley. I am sure
that this article comes from a Napa paper. Four of her children were born
in Kerby (Josephine County, Oregon). The last two, Frank Edwin and Florence
Ethel Thompson, were born in Napa.

The first half the article lists the pallbearers, some of whom might have been
boarders that Elizabeth Thompson took in after her husband Isaac died. I
know a Mr. Brown lived boarded. We also have photographs of the family
taken by M. H. Strong. The end of the article incorrectly lists one of the
survivors as Clifford Hart. It should be Gifford Hart.
