Sarah H. Evans

Sarah H Evans, my wife's paternal grandmother was born April 2, 1904 in Wyoming.  She lived in Sheridan, WY in 1910 and 1920 with her sisters Mary and Mayoworth, and brother Simon.  By 1930 her parents had died and she was left to care for her 14 year old sister Mayoworth.  She reports one job in 1930 as a waitress at "Western Cafeteria" in Sheridan.

In approximately 1930 she married Lloyd Barker and had three children Lloyd Jr, Rotchie, and Harry.  After Lloyd died in 1947, she moved to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and married Herman Ostermeyer who worked at a wheel and frame alignment shop.

She passed away in Dec 1984.

Her granddaughters report she was "the sweetest lady".
