Eva Isabel Coulter was the second of six children of Richard Lewis Coulter & Mary Jane Stoughton. She married 26 November 1896 in Mercer County, Pennsylvania, to John J. "Jack" Conlan (born Jan 1865 in New York state to Matthew & Margaret Conlan; died 12 Apr 1927 in San Jose, California); one son: Frank Leslie "Leslie" Conlan, born 30 March 1898. John worked for a printer. Eva & John are in Chicago in the 1900, 1910, and 1920 censuses; by 1926 they were in San Jose, California. Eva is a widow in the 1930 census.

Eva was an accomplished pianist and gave piano lessons. She was cremated and inurned with her husband and their son in San Francisco Columbarium at One Loraine Court, between Stanyan and Arguello, off Anza Street, in the Inner Richmond district. Also inurned there are Eva's parents and her siblings: Inez Dowlin (with husband John and daughter Iris), Norman Richard Coulter (with his third wife Winifred and fourth wife Lillian), and Mildred Metelle "Millie" Coulter Bloemer (with her first husband R.R. Davison).

The San Francisco Columbarium, containing over five thousand niches, was designed by British architect Bernard J. Cahill and opened in 1898. The copper-domed building survived the 1906 earthquake; but from 1934 to 1979, it was abandoned to raccoons and birds, mushrooms and fungus. The Neptune Society acquired the building in 1979 and over the years has performed a dazzling restoration. Looming over three acres of gardens, the building features inlaid marble floors, stained-glass windows, tiered circular balconies, and ceiling mosaics. It serves as a memorial chapel and hosts concerts and civic events. Free tours are available.
