Obituary
Maud Elizabeth Samuels was born in Boone County, Missouri, July 7, 1883; died November 18, 1918. Moved with her parents to Ellis ,Kansas in 1884. Her mother was teaching school about 12 miles northwest of Ellis on November 16, 1886, when the awful blizzard came that will long be remembered by the old settlers of Ellis and community which swept her frail body with the storm and was found frozen to death several days later.

Her father remarried again in 1890. In the spring of 1897 Maud Elizabeth came to lived with her aunt, Mrs. J.D. Rippey, where she made her home until she married to C.T. Bramblett June 7, 1911, making their home in Salina for a little over two years. Then they moved to Newton, Kansas, where Mr. Bramblett went into the milling business with his brother, J.W. They lived here until August, 1918, when her husband accepted a position at the Larrabee Milling company of Kansas City where they were living at the time of her death.

She was taken with influenza from which she had recovered. She was taken suddenly sick with what was thought to be a nervous breakdown. She was taken to the Research hospital where it developed that she had pneumonia. Her husband also being sick with pneumonia at the same place.

She leaves to mourn her loss a husband and two children, Cleta 6 years of age and little Calvin Jr., 3, a father, step-mother, two half-brothers, and a host of friends and relatives. She was laid to rest in Mount Hope Cemetery at Ellis on Thursday, November 21, 1918.
-----------
Daughter of Sallie D Booth and James Henry Samuels. Wife of Calvin T Bramblett whom she married 7 June 1911 in Philadelphia, PA. She died of pneumonia due to influenza -- probably a victim of the 1918-1919 flu epidemic. Death certificate gives place of birth as Ellis Co., KS, but census records all give place of birth as Missouri. Incorrect information on death certificate is probably due to the fact that Maude & family moved to Ellis Co., KS soon after her birth.
