Thank you for the information on Frederick Whittington.

His sister Mollie died as a child (pre 1885 Nebraska census since not on it with her family). She tipped a lit oil table lamp over on herself and died due to burns.

William Edward (my grandfather) did die in a Nebraska City hospital, but his place of residence at the time of his death was Auburn, Nemaha County, Nebraska.

Again, thank you so much for the information and photos.

Do you have other Whittington photos? I'd very much like to see them, if you do.
