1891 Lulu May Pulis


Born: Mar. 28, 1891 in Lestershire, Broome County, NY (Johnson City)

Died: Oct. 23, 1972 in Johnson City, Broome County, NY, at age 81

She was buried Oct. 25, 1972 in Glenwood Cemetery, Afton, Chenango Co., NY


Her father was 1854 Oscar Mortimer Pulis.

Her mother was 1859 Euphemia Walker Faatz.


Her family (i.e. father Oscar and mother Euphemia and their children)
moved by train to Selby, South Dakota in 1896, and returned in 1903.

Her grandparents (James Mortimer Pulis and Jane Brown Pulis) had 
moved to SD  in 1884, with Jane's mother, Mary Babcock Brown.
James, Jane and Mary are buried in Selby/Bangor, Walworth County, SD.

Family legend has it that Lulu was so afraid of indians that she could
not deal with the stress of living out west and suffered some sort of 
nervous breakdown, so the family moved back to New York state in 1903.
