• Listed as Carrie M. McKay.324
• I do have a few pictures of Cora…she was in the follies from what I was told. Cora married wealthy Edgar Mills. She ran a rooming house and beauty parlor. When Edgar died suddenly at age 25 [sic] from a vein bursting in his head, his parents took everything away from her. She never remarried.325
