Louisa Grace (Springer) Hubbard was the daughter to Allen and Lillian (Thompson) Springer. She was named after her maternal grandmother, Louisa Thompson. As a youngster she was given the nickname "Little Ikie" which became shortened to "Ike", and that was what her friends and family called her. She grew up in the Hurley community and attended Hurley schools. On June 9, 1929, she married Oliver Christopher Hubbard in Lawrence County. Oliver and Ike lived on a farm in the Buck Prairie Township of Lawrence County near the Barry County line and raised their family of six children there. Although she was not a trained musician, she could play the piano, and she and some of her children used to sing together in church. Ike was a big tease and cut-up; she always liked to have fun. She made great home-made ice-cream. When Oliver had his strawberry fields, Ike and the children, and others picked and stemmed strawberries to sell commercially in Marionville. In later years, when they retired, she and Oliver moved to Aurora where Ike was living at the time of her death.
