Adeline took in washing for people in Bokoshe.

Adeline's daughter, Emma (Smith) Newman (b. August 1882, d. March 10, 1936), is also buried at Old Bokoshe Cemetery. She married Jasper Newman. 
No photo for Emma.

Past the main gate at Old Bokoshe Cemetery, on the left hand side, there are four or five unmarked graves, and the people who are buried there were all kin. Adeline's great-granddaughter said that she was living with Adeline when she died. She remembers that some people came to the school house and told her that her great-grandmother had died. She also remembers that the burial took place there.
