| The wanted ad in its its context. |
The fate of my husband's 2nd great grandmother M Louise "Lizzie" (Malchow) Buchholz (born about March 1862, likely in Brandenberg, Germany) remains a mystery. The wanted ad is the last record I find for her (I can't find her in the 1910 Federal Census). She had daughters in Dewey, Washington County, Oklahoma about 1910, and one of her daughters married a man in Polk County, Missouri in 1911 (I'm not sure how they met, Polk County is over 200 miles away).

| Mrs. M. L. Buchholz was the maternal grandmother of my husband's paternal grandmother Kathleen Murphy. |
