    Lenora Saphronia married Frank Kenyon 7 Sep 1876 in Lynn County, Iowa by authority of F D ADAMS. Josiah Hale, Justus of the Peace performed the ceremony.

    It seems that Frank deserted Lenora, possibly after their daughter was born.
    Saphronia lived with her mother, Roxanna, and took care of here even though Saphronia was subject to fits.

    After Roxanna passed away, Saphronia had a nervous breakdown and was put in Independence, later transferred to the County Home in Linn County.
