Table Rock Argus, Oct. 20, 1938.
MRS. LOUIS C. WOLFE PASSED AWAY.
Word was received here Monday morning of the death of Mrs. Ruth Chambers Wolfe which occurred at her home in Council Bluffs at 9:00 o'clock Wednesday morning and immediately following, the body was brought to Table Rock where it was held in state at the Methodist Church until 1:30 o'clock. Committal services were held at the Table Rock cemetery in charge of Rev. E. V. Price.
Ruth Chambers only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Chambers was born at Table Rock, Nebr. November 1, 1880 and passed away at her home October 17, 1938 at the age of 57 years. Her early life was spent here and she graduated from our school in 1897. In June 1906 she married Louis C. Wolfe and moved to Council Bluffs where she has since made her home. Three children were born one having died in infancy and the other two are Ruth Louise Anderson of Lincoln and William Chambers Wolfe of Council Bluffs.
Besides these two children she leaves her aged parents and three brothers, Harmon of North Platte, Ward of Table Rock and James of Glendale, California, her husband having preceded her in death in November 1935.
1930 census has Ruth L and William C as children. She has two other children but I can't find info on them after searching many times.
