Newspaper Clippings
From The Los Angeles Times Friday January 6, 1911, page 9:
Note that his daughter's name is given as Mrs JH Helmer. Either this is a mistake or Josephine had another husband I am unaware of— though she supposedly married Egbert Cook in about 1925 and he is listed as her (divorced) husband on her death certificate.
