| Notes |
- Bertha Elva (Muncy) was the daughter of Levi Muncy and Canzadia "Zadie" (Doshier) Muncy. She was born at Sutter, Indian Territory-Choctaw Nation (currently known as Calhoun, Le Flore County, Oklahoma).
Elva married Benjamin Semore Morgan (aka: Ben/Bennie)on August 21, 1919 at McCurtain, Haskell County, Oklahoma. Ben and Elva were the parents of three children; two boys and one daughter. Ben and Elva divorced in the mid 1930's, the children came to California with their mother in 1938. They had been in the San Jose area two years when Aunt Elva passed away. She died at San Jose Hospital, the cause of death was cancer, she was only 40 years old.
Heartbreaking for her young children, her youngest son was just 12 years old. Equally painful to grandma Canzadia Muncy. She had just lost grandpa Levi on Dec. 8, 1939, and then 6 months later, she lost her beloved daughter.
Cancer was no stranger to grandma Canzadia, she was the primary care giver to her mother, Molly Doshier when she died in 1906, the cause being cancer of the spine.
Grandma Canzadia died 10 months after Elva died; within a tad more than 2-years, the family had suffered a tremendous loss (losing three loved ones in such a short time).
Aunt Elva's oldest son passed away in California in 2006. Her daughter lives in the San Jose area, her youngest son lives in Butte County, CA. All three lived in Santa Clara County most of their lives. Upon retirement the boys moved out of the area.
