Biography

Ada M Glass was born on 27 February 1884[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] in Clarke County, Iowa, United States[1][2][3][6][7]. She was the daughter of Thomas Gilfen Glass[1][2][3][4][5][7] and Mary Catherine Chandler[1][2][3][4][7].

Ada married Ralph Odell Matthews[4][5] on 26 November 1901[4][5] in Clarke County, Iowa, United States[4][5].

No signs of children. It seems likely she didn't have any. Census records after her death show her husband remarried with children but they were all born after Ada's death and after her husband remarried.

Ada M (Glass) Matthews passed away on 13 March 1906[7] in Fremont Township, Clarke County, Iowa, United States[7].

Research Notes

CAUTION: Date of birth is within 8 months of her brother James Glass. Sources for her brother's date of birth are less than adequate and it seems likely that James was born 2 or even 3 years earlier than his profile shows as of 28 May 2021.
