The obituary was also published by The Courier on the 27th. The full text of this one was included in her Find a Grave memorial.
Ada's obituary, and thus the memorial that includes it, reported that she was born in Batesville, Arkansas, which is in the northeast of the state. This location, however, does not match the configuration of family residence. Her grandparents and great grandparents were already living in Western Arkansas near the Indian Territory border when her father was born in Scott County, Arkansas.
Her grandfather lived over in Oklahoma part of the time and did business there. (See profile for Duncan Lafayette Terry.) Her grandmother Wysetta Terry, after moving with her family to Arkansas, moved into Indian Territory, and died on that side of the border.
Ada's older sister was born across the border in Oklahoma. In the 1920 census (see above), both Ada and her sister Jessie were reported born in Oklahoma. Ada's Social Security records report her birth place not as Batesville, but Bates, a location in Scott County, Arkansas, the county where her father was born, near the Oklahoma border.
It does not make sense that after three generations, her parents would move eastward to northeastern Arkansas for a short period when she would be born, then move back to the very same area where her parents and the previous two generations had lived, and their descendants continue to live in that region, or farther west.
Concerning her place of death, there is a discrepancy there also. Her obituary from the Russelville Courier does report she died in a hospital in Russelville. The Obituary referenced in the Obituary Daily Times listing (city or paper of publication not given) reports her place of death as Delaware, Arkansas, which is in Logan County, northwest of Dardanelle. It appears that Delaware was her residence, as indeed her Social Security records tell us, but death occurred in a Dardanelle hospital, as the Dardanelle paper reports. In fact, the obituary also reports she lived in Delaware.
