1885, 9 May - Alice "Allie" was born in Texas and made the trek to Washington by covered wagon with her father and brothers. [US census,Crawford Co. ID]

c 1900 -Allie Marshall, age 15, marries Alonza Wilkins, age 39, in Tacoma, WA.
Alonza Wilkins was apparently a real estate salesman with his father's business in Pierce Co., Washington. The age difference was probably the biggest hurtle to over come and the marriage failed. Alonza apparently wanted her to stay home and be the adoring house wife that was expected at the time. She apparently hadn't finished being a child. The court records are full of (probably biased) descriptions of her life style of gambling and drinking. [marriage and divorce documents, Pierce Co., WA]

c1907- She remarries to Francis Joseph Killduff, Pierce Co., Washington

1920 - US Census,  Washington, Tacoma Precinct. Pierce Co., enum. dist 273, sheet 6A  Florence Killduff the apparent daughter of the Francis and Allie shows up here  with her mother who has apparently remarried.
