I don't have a lot of knowledge about my grandmother.  I was 2 years old when she died.  Apparently, she cared for two ill or elderly people in their house on North 7th (?) in Quincy, IL and inherited the house when they died.  That is the house where my father was raised, and where my grandfather lived until he died in the 1970s.
