Burial at Peninsula. NOTE: This entry in the handwritten ledger-style death record has been transcribed by WV Archives (and consequently also by Ancestry.com) as being for Susan Allen. But scrutiny of the image following digital enhancement shows the name to be Serene Allen. Her name in the 1873 birth record of daughter Gertrude was clearly Sarena.
