#1-3 Mar., 1921 - The Enterprise - Effie Goldberg

Word was received in Blair of the death of Mrs. Effie Goldberg, formerly Effie Wild, of tuberculosis at Pocatello, Idaho. Mrs. Goldberg was the daughter of former Blair people, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Wild, and was reared to womanhood in Blair, removing with her parents to Fremont several years ago. Funeral services were held at the Christian church in Fremont on last Tuesday, and burial was made in the Kennard cemetery. The deceased leaves, besides her parents, her husband, a grown daughter and a sister, Winifred, aged 15 years, who is very low with rheumatism of the heart. The many friends of the family extend sympathy to them in their bereavement.

#2-3 Mar., 1921 - The Tribune - Effie Goldberry (The last name is spelled incorrect in the newspaper article)

W. E. Swihart received the sad news of the death of his granddaughter, Mrs. Effie Goldberry at her home in Idaho on Sunday. Mrs. Goldberry was quite well know here, having been a former resident of our city. Funeral services were held yesterday, Wednesday, with burial in the Kennard cemetery.

Note: Since no death date was given, March 1 was used. On her parents' stones in the Kennard Cemetery, the spelling is Wilds.

Note: There is no marker in the Kennard Cemetery. Since there is no space by her parents, we assume she is buried in her grandfather's lot (William Swihart)which is Blk 3 Lot 32.
