Biography

Amberetta was home through the 1880 census. I've spelled her first name as it is shown on her gravestone-there are multiple variations throughout the record trail. One of Amberetta's 4 children did not survive to 1900 and I have not found any records as of Oct., 2017 to give that child a name so have not added a profile here.
