Daughter of Richard Adams and Ophelia Jane Grose. Married John Thomas Knowles in 1907. Their children: Ophelia Blanche, Adelma May, Olive Maxine, and Ruth Lorraine.
John, Nellie, and baby Ruth died during the 1918 flu epidemic. When Nellie died the doctor and the family were worried that John would take the news badly. So the doctor went out the window. John, unfortunately, saw the doctor's "escape," realized what the situation was, and as predicted, took a turn for the worse and died the following day.
