Bessie M. LINN was born on 27 Sept 1901 in Weiner, Poinsett Co., Arkansas and died on 25 Jun 1968 in Weiner. She was the daughter of Joseph Linn (1873-1946) and Zeannie 'Zena' RAYBOURN (1884-1943).
Her siblings were two sisters: Nora Irene (1903-1986) and Gracie (1907-1907).
It appears that Bessie never married.
Bessie and her parents are found on the 1910 census living in Mercur, Tooele Co., Utah, but are back in Poinsett County by 12 Sept 1918 when her father completes his World War II draft registration card. Bessie, her parents and her sister, Nora Irene, are living in Dobson, Poinsett Co., Arkansas for the 1920 census, but sometime before the 1930 census, Bessie has moved to Lowell, Cochise Co., Arizona.
She moved back to Weiner sometime before her death on June 25, 1968 where she died.
