In 1942, on her 86th birthday, she "observed her eighty-sixth birthday anniversary today at her home at 270 North Cherry street. Four of her five daughters were with her on this occasion and included Mrs. Walter Prall, Mrs. T. R. Hopkins and Mrs. O. O. McLeish, Galesburg, and Mrs. E.J. Norton of Cincinnati, O. Mrs. West received a number of gifts, flowers and cards from her wide circle of friends and relatives." This is from a newspaper clipping which has no identification.
