I (SUSPECT) this is Laura Arlena Peer. 16 Oct 1887 - 12 Mar 1967

Her parents were Joseph Peer & Margaret Elizabeth Spiggle. (Married: 27 Dec 1875)

Joseph & Margaret's children are listed as Elmer Lee, Oliver Newton, Lillie Elizabeth, Charles Monroe, Laura Arlena, & Lula Irene. 

Laura's death certificate reads that she was never married. It also lists her middle name as Arlene, but anearly census record, which probably had information related from the parents, lists her middle name as Arlena. 

She is buried at Keller Cemetery in Mt Olive area.
