Mrs. Finley had resided in Shreveport for the past several years after moving from Delhi, where she lived most of her life. She lived here with her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Victor Adams.

Gravesite Details
The birth date (Apr. 6, 1879) on Mrs. Finley's death certificate decidedly disagrees with all census records and is thus incorrect.
