I am trying to locate my great-grandmother, Julia Woolhiser-BECHTEL, born in Dutchess County, NY on 22 April, 1860 to Milton and Sarah Woolhiser. Married William F. Bechtel 22 Feb., 1882 in Winterset, Iowa. Moved to Keya Paha county, Iowa after marrying. She and William divorced approx. 1903. Her last documented location was in 1905 in Keya Paha county, NE. when she attended the wedding of her daughter. Any assistance or information is greatly appreciated.
