Catharine and Abigail were listed in the 1880 US census as living on Bunker Hill Avenue (no number)...


Los Angeles Times Nov 18, 1939


Abigail (sometimes spelled Abagail) died on November 15, 1939. The White & Callanan mortuary where her service took place was likely their establishment at 664 W Washington Blvd.... The Harbor Freeway eventually took that building out. The undertakers then moved to the northwest corner of Western and Fountain (or already had a branch in that part of town, according to some sources) where they seem to have been until recently....

There a quite a number of articles on the battle over Abigail's will in the Times and Sentinel, as well as in the Chicago Defender and other papers.
