From the Files of Marguerite Cook Clark: Mrs. L. A. Cook

This obituary is for Katherine Huddleston Cook, wife of Lorry A. Cook. I find it sad no mention of her first name or maiden name was in the obituary. This is not the first like that I posted. During the first 60 to 70 years of the last century, women were often identified in newspaper articles, as members of organizations, on cemetery stones, and even in workplaces by their husband's names or initials. 

Katherine Huddleston, born in Denison, Texas on October 21, 1905,  was the daughter of Lula Scruggs and Eliab Fleming Huddleston. She and Lorry Cook were married in Dallas, Texas on November 14, 1927.
