  • Notes 
    • It appears from the census that shortly after Lottie's birth, her mother was committed to the Minnesota State Hospital for the Insane. Lottie seems to have been raised by another family.

      I have many fond memories of Charlotte and all her children. My father and Donald West were lifelong personal friends. There was no grander person on this planet than Charlotte, such a proper and dignified lady she was. I spent a lot of time with "Mrs. West" in the last 5 years of her life. My child hood home was right next door to the West Farm, and I mowed her lawn as a boy, weeded her flowers, and everyday I had to put Mrs. West in her son's Jeep and drive her out to the pastures so she could view all his cattle and make sure they were healthy. A grand lady and I still think of her and miss her and those times. She always told me that she was adopted by the Bisbee's and was raised in the Stacyville area, I do remember that. -- Jody Roll.
