Alice Maria Bååv Kemp died in July of 1970, in Chicago. She had lived in the United States since the spring of 1913, almost 57 years.

Alice’s name appears alongside her husband’s on documents between their 1915 wedding and her husband’s death in 1939. After 1939 her son, Walden, is listed as the head of household. Alice is listed as a widow. I don’t know if she ever worked outside the home after she married. The notes for her on the censuses say housework, or “at home”. She left no other marks.
