  After her husband August Albers died, she lived for a while with Louise Albers in Milwaukee (wife of her son [Johann] George), then moved in with her daughter [Sophie] Bertha Albers Schwalenberg, which is where she died.

  George [Johann Georg] got a call to the Rantoul Twp., Calumet, Wisconsin area, then Henry got a job on a farm in that area, and so did Ed Dress, then Louise moved in with George. Source: Interview with Armin & Delores Schwalenberg (Primary Enclosure File #64)
  
  1900 census lists her immigration date as 1848, and having lived in America for 52 years. Source: 1900 Federal Census, Illinois, Will, Crete Twp.; ED #101; Sheet #12B; entry 214 226. Could it be that she meant '52 (as in 1852) rather than 52 years? That would better jive with her answers to that question in 1920 (1853) and 1930 (1851).
