Margaret Land's obituary

As a footnote to history, here is CTR's sister's obituary.

As is common with obits, they are probably given to a junior reporter who doesn't get the facts right. You will notice a familial error in the report, but of course the main person who could ensure accuracy isn't there to do so.

From the Tampa Bay Times of November 29, 1934.

The published will of CTR gives his sister's name as Mrs. M. M. Land, but other references give the middle initial as R for Russell, including her death certificate. One wonders whether there was just a misprint in the published will.

Addenda

Mike C has kindly sent scans of Margaret Land's published poem. It again shows her name as Margaret Russell Land.
