Blanche May Russell was born on 1 Jul 1888 in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah. She died on 7 Nov 1888 in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah. She was buried on 9 Nov 1888 in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah. She was sealed to her parents on 23 Jun 2005 in the Provo Utah LDS temple. She was baptized into the LDS Church. She was endowed. >We know this child existed because the 1900 census says that Florence May Tyler (mother) had had 3 children, 2 of which were living on June 16, 1900 when the census was taken. The 3 daughters, Grace, Florence and Margaret were all alive in the 1910 census, so none of them had died. The 1910 census says that Florence May Tyler (mother) had had 4 children, 3 living.
>Per Shirley M. Hull, niece of Blanche: her name was Blanch. Shirley's mother told her about this daughter. Shirley was told that the little girl was age 4 years old. She died because she ate green apples, according to Grace Hull, Shirley's mother and sister of Blanche. That story does not agree with the cemetery record which says that Blanche only lived 3 months.
