Eleanor's mother, Anna died when Eleanor was seven from some unknown illness.

Anna had to go to the hospital and get surgery... she didn't come back out alive. At that time her father was gone and he never got to see his wife again. her father, Elliot, died when Eleanor was ten. He did because he "lapsed into a coma after a drunken fall and died..." -quote from Eleanor Roosevelt a life of discovery by Russell Freedman
