ALICE A. HAUSE (30 Aug 1861 - 1939) was born in Emmet, Michigan. She was the first child of LABAN AUGUSTUS HAUSE and MELISSA SANDERSON HAUSE. Alice had an elder half-sister, ELMA J. HAUSE (1859-1942), by way of her father, from his first marriage to SARAH DYSINGER. After Sarah died, Laban married Melissa and had Alice, along with her siblings SARAH (1863-1880), FRANK (1867-1951), and EDITH (1871-1949).
Alice married laborer SENECA YOUNG (b. @1857 in Canada) on 13 Aug 1879 in Millington, Michigan—days before her 18th birthday.
Alice and Senica Young settled near her family in Millington (according to the 1880 census), but soon after, Alice's sister Sarah died from food poisoning that she contracted from canned beans at the reception of her wedding to Arthur Baker (on 11 Nov 1880). The Hause family then moved away from Millington to Riley Center, Michigan. Where Alice and Seneca stayed is unknown, as there is no 1890 census information (most of the census records from that year have been destroyed).
Mrs. Young died Friday in Highland Park General Hospital after an extended illness. She had spent the last year and a half in the home of her son, F. Arthur Young, of Colorado Avenue, coming here from Memphis, Mich. She was born Aug. 30 1861.
