Biography

Barbara was born December 1, 1854[1] in Iowa. She was the daughter of Abner Sumner and Nancy Engler. She married Daniel Luther Woodland April 4, 1877 in Greenwood, Kansas[2]. They had 4 children together[3]. Barbara passed away January 4, 1908 in Elma, Washington. She was about 58 years old.

Children:

  • Charles Marshall (1877-1953)
  • Bert Lee (1880-1935)
  • Juanita Estelle (1885-1927)
  • Ernest Elra (1888-1953)

Research Notes

I am assuming Barbara's middle name was Flitter because that is how her name appears on her wedding license. In the Kansas State Census Collection, 1855-1925 on Ancestry.com, she is referred to as Flitty [4].
