    In 1940, Edith was reported in the census as an inmate of the Lincoln State School and Colony (for the Febble Minded) in Lincoln, Logan County, Illinois.  Her brother Berley had died here at age 16 in 1916.  Edith's mother had died in 1934, and Edith was probably placed in the LSS&C when her sister Nettie and her husband Arthur Knave decided they could not provide for proper care.  The census reports that Edith was here in 1935.

    There were three other Gregory-surnamed inmates at the school.  Their place of family residence is not reported.
