[Laura's note: Mabel's surname in her obituary was listed as Trone, which is how I have headlined it here; however, the Social Security Death Index lists Bateman as her legal surname at the time of her death. I have cross-referenced her name in the index to cover both names. Perhaps it was listed this way as a family preference.]
