She had tuberculosis. She was engaged to a young man, but the local priest discouraged her from marrying. She succumbed to her disease at the age of 25. She is buried next to her half sister Ida Simon . She also had tuberculosis and died at the age of 30.
Her tombstone lists her name as Mechtildis, but she always went by the name Mathilda (usually shortened to Tilda) so that is the name I am using for her bio.
