I found this photo of Ida on Ancetry posted by buschlaura 
Donovan's death is unknown at this time, but she did say she was widow on her marriage record to Hubby #2 John Frank Albin. I wonder what demons she was running from.


I found 2 newspaper clippings seems he was in trouble as well, from 1931 Washington.



Her mother had a second huband and more kids.
