Person:Alice Coughlin (1)

1920 US Census said she could read and write English. She was a witness at the Baptism of William Thibadeau.

Per Ellen Blanche Thibadeau, she and her sisters always lived close to each other, when one moved they all did. Frances and Kitty were always pregnant at the same time. Alice tried to keep up with them but had a lot of stillborns and miscarriages.
