Matilda Florence Wertz, daughter of John W. Wertz and Mary Ann Pfoutz, was born in 1852 and died in 1901.  She was buried in Cammal PA where she had lived with her family.
Matilda married John Luther Downs, Jr., who was born on 9/1/1846 in Dublin Ireland and died on 12/29/1909 in Newark DE, where he moved after Matilda died.
One of their daughters, Anna Althea Downs (changed her name to Alice Thea Downs), was my Grandmother.  Click here to see a photo of her on the Downs page.
