Obituary for Virginia (Graham) DeMark & Don DeMark. Virginia was the daughter of Ann H. (Dodge) Graham & Earl G. Graham.

Another of my great-grandfather's sisters I have found is Ann Hazel Graham. Ann was born in 1896 in Buena Vista. She was the youngest of the children and by 1910 was the only one attending school. She married George Earl Graham in 1915. Here is their wedding announcement from the Chaffee County Republican dated July 24, 1915, 'Earl G. Graham and Miss. Anna Hazel Dodge were married Wednesday evening at the home of Rev. MacInnes. Both young people are well known, well liked and enjoy a wide circle of friends, who will be pleased to hear of their happy wedding. They will make this city their home.'

They had one daughter, Virginia, born in 1917. Virginia married Don DeMark in 1939. They both died in 1991. They didn't have any children of their own; so that ends that line. Here are the pictures I have are of Ann. The first picture is from 1915. Ann is in the middle. The man on the right is her father, Nathaniel T. Dodge. I don't know who the lady is on the left. The second picture is from 1917. Ann is with her mother, Fannie H. (Stevens) Dodge, who is holding her granddaughter Virginia. The lady on the left is unidentified. The third picture is of Ann during the 1930's. Ann and her family seemed to move around over the years. In 1919, they were living in Olympia, Washington. The following year they are back in Buena Vista. During the 1920's & 1930's they lived in Colorado Springs. Ann worked as a manager of the El Patio Lodge in Colorado Springs during the 1930's and early 1940's. They left Colorado during the 1940's and lived in Utah for a few years before moving to Norhten California. Ann returned to Colorado Springs in the late 1950's, and passed away there in 1961.

Gravestones for Ann Graham (1896-1961) and Virginia DeMark (1917-1991), her daughter.
