Mary "Marie” Corbaley Lorane was the 8th and youngest child born to Richard and his wife Jane (Croco) Corbaley.
She led an interesting life. Marie was born in 1866 in Plymouth, Marshall County Indiana, and at the young age of 5, moved with her family 2,300 mi west to a small farming community in California by the name of Healdsburg. There she attended school until age 12, when her parents decided to return with her to Indiana, leaving her older brothers who all opted to remain in California. Six years later, when Marie was 18, her parents decided to move again, this time 1,900 mi NW to the Washington territories where her family became prominent pioneers in the settlement of Douglas County.
It was in Douglas County, on Dec 7, 1890, that Marie married D.C. De Golia, an attorney and proprietor of the Waterville, WA weekly journal. The marriage didn't last long, however, and De Golia soon headed back to Oakland.
On June 5, 1896, Marie married Leon Oppenheimer, a glassware merchant who also tried his hand at Real Estate sales in Washington. Marie and Leon lived in Spokane until at least 1910, and sometime thereafter they moved to California. There they purchased property in the Berkeley hills and Leon returned to being glassware merchant. In California, Leon went by the last name of “Lorane”.
By 1927, Marie and Leon were divorced and Maria had moved to St. Helena, California, where she bought a home and took in boarders.
Marie kept the name Lorane until her death on Dec 31, 1943 in St. Helena, CA (Date of death obtained from CA State Death records).
I am unaware of the resting place of either of her husbands.
