Blanche was raised by her adoped or foster parents, Edward Kelsey and Mary A. Walrod. The obituary is conflicting in both the parentage and her name. Maybe her birth name was Pauline Collar and then she took the surname of her "other" parents, the Kelsey's. Also, "Blanche" may have been a nickname.
