Biography
Apparently Ada Margaret's father, Frank Conklin, left the family before she was born, and then Jerusha (AKA Anna) Conklin moved to Adams County, Nebraska. Jerusha then married John Tammen in 1889 so many months before Ada Margaret was born, and that caused some confusion as to who was Ada margaret's biological father. Ada Margaret was buried in the Holy Name Cemetery, Jersey City, Hudson County, New Jersey.
