   Cause of her death was automobile accident.²

  Noted events in her life were:

• Cemetery: Calvary Cemetery: Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, USA. ²

Elizabeth married John Frambach Stoveken Sr. on 24 Jan 1883 in Milwaukee, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.¹ (John Frambach Stoveken Sr. was born on 15 Nov 1841 in Herkimer, Herkimer, New York, USA,^{3 4} died on 24 Feb 1926 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, USA ^{3 4} and was buried on 27 Feb 1926 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, USA ^{3 4 5}.) The cause of his death was Myocarditis, chronic.²

  Marriage Notes:

The births of his 2 daughters from his second marriage to Elizabeth (or Katherine) took place in 1884 and 1887. Was he in Outagamie cty or was He north somewhere (The answer to this question is that he retained a residence in Kaukauna to at least until 1888 when John started the Quinnesec falls Pulp Mill Quinnesec, MI, Niagara, WI is across the river which John Founded) ( His oldest child (John Jr.) would have been under 17 at the time of his second marriage. Gertrude would have been 4 when her mother died and 6 when John Sr. married his second wife.

Did confirm that John Sr was living in Milwaukee aft 1904 to at least 1917 - 18 (He was also residing in Cripple Creek, Colorado and Colorado Springs, CO Later he moved to Grand Junction, CO where he owned several hundred acres in the Orchard growing area of the Mesa. His Son Joseph was there and died and is buried there. Rosella Stoveken Noskey said she took a train in summer to stay with John Stoveken Sr. (Her Grandfather) while she was in High School. This would place her about 16 yrs old in 1918 about High school age. She insisted that he lived on State St. in Milwaukee. This seems to conflict with the address given on the affidavit about his brother Henry's name of Framby and Frambach in 1904. It is likely John Sr. moved to a new address before Rosella spent time with him. (The early address is now on the property of Miller Park (The baseball stadium in Milwaukee) The address on State Street would place the address near downtown Milwaukee and near where he probably lived in Milwaukee early in life. It was reported that Gertrude Stoveken the youngest daughter of John Stoveken and Gertrude Diedrich was deaf and lived in Milwaukee above a drug store.

Jean Noskey said that the entire family group of John Stoveken, Sr. and his second marriage to Elizabeth died in LA California area.

I contacted the cemetery in Los Angeles - Confirmed He is buried there along side Elizabeth - They did not have date of death of his wife.

I find it interesting that Elisabeth's father was a shoemaker. When John was living in Milwaukee in the early 1850's there was a Bernard Stoveken who was a shoemaker and was John's adopted father. This could explain that John may have known Elisabeth Kohanek as a young adult while living in Milwaukee because of the occupation connection. ²
