She was a charter member of the Pennsylvania Avenue Christian Church in Oklahoma City and was a 50-year member of Eastern Star.

****************

In some places she is described as Elizabeth Farmer Brown.1369. I am inclined to think that her real middle name was Martin. She was listed as Lizzie M. Brown in her first census, at 3 months of age, and in her newspaper obituary.
