  • Name Hattie Jane Rouse
  • Note
    (Research):Date of birth is probably between 6-15-1873 (19-years-old when she married) and 3-11-1874 (20-years-old when Anna Mae was born). Grave is unmarked. No information has been found regarding her death. Alta Thornton (granddaughter of Hattie) says she may have died in Missouri.

    Her daughter, Anna May Roush, is listed as a dependent on her father's pension file as granddaugter, filed on 1 May 1899. No record of her sister, Myrtle Armada. Could this mean that her mother had passed away prior to 1 May 1899? By this time, Hattie Jane's father David was deceased and her mother had remarried, marrying her husband's father.

    (Medical):Duration of illness: seven days. Erysipelas is an acute bacterial skin infection, typically a rash, involving the upper dermis.
  • Note


    Her last name is shown in various documents as Martin, Jones, and Johnson. She seems to be a very mysterious person as some documents list the state in which she was born as Illinois, some as Iowa (1880 census) and some as Kansas. Her daughter, May, who was from her first marriage, states that both May and her mother were born in Illinois and that May's parents were married in Illinois. In the 1925 Census May listed only her mother's first name and left the surname blank.


    Rebecca had two daughters at time of marriage to M. L. Thornton: Julia and May. Julia married Tom McDonald and they had a son named Walker. Tom had a farm on Aurora. Find A Grave for her son, Walker McDonald, lists mother as Julia Dicks McDonald (1874-1951).

    May married Bill Olds and they had two sons: Harold and Roy

    1880 Census: Ann Thornton, born in Iowa, father in Virginia. Mother's birthplace left blank.
    1900 Census: Anna Thornton, born in Iowa, father born in Iowa and mother born in Illinois.
    1910 Census: Anna Thornton, 2ND MARRIAGE, 12 children born; 10 living. Born in Iowa, father's birthplace Ohio and mother's birthplace Ohio.

    Marriage License | Anna May Rouse
    2 March 1940 | Polk, Iowa, United States
    Ira and Anna obtained a marriage license on 2 March 1940 in Polk, Iowa, United States.
    Although Anna Mae Rouse and Ira H. Butler obtained a marriage license on 2 Mar 1940 in Polk County, Iowa, no proof has been found that it was ever filed. They were found in the 1940 Census listed as husband and wife and on Ira's 1942 World War II Draft Registration he listed Anna May Butler as his wife and the person who would know where he was. But his death certificate stated he was divorced and his obituary, found 21 Oct 1946 in the Des Moines Register (page 9) stated he was survived by one daughter, one sister, one half-sister, one half-brother, and two grandchildren but no mention of a wife, leaving the question of whether they were ever married. A Card of Thanks was published in the Des Moines Register on 23 Oct 1946 (page 19) by the Wayne Cummings family (his daughter's family) thanking neighbors, friends, and relatives for their acts of love and sympathy during the recent loss of their beloved father, Ira H. Butler did not include mention of a wife. It appears that they lived together for at least two years between 1940-1942, but the question of was it an actual marriage or more of a common-law marriage remains. Anna's daughter Gladys, when questioned about this, stated she didn't think they ever actually married.

    He was well digger on 1 October 1936 in Page, Iowa, United States. Dick and son Estelle of Hepburn were digging a well on the Oscar Grebert farm. In former years there were several good wells on the place but within the last drought years the wells had ran dry, as on many other farms, making it necessary to dig a new well. The well he was digging was four and a half feet in diameter, making a large water basin, and, since a good vein of water had been struck, it was hoped there would be a generous supply of water available. As soon as he completed that well, he woujld be digging a well for another farmer, with several other farmers waiting to have wells dug before cold weather comes.
