Laura Ingalls Wilder

Grace Ingalls, the sister of author Laura Ingalls Wilder, died on November 10, 1941.

Rose's son is only mentioned in a handful of letters and alluded to in a diary entry. Apparently, sometime in the year after she married Gillette Lane, Rose either suffered a late term miscarriage, bore a stillborn son, or had a living son who died shortly after birth. A subsequent operation in Kansas City (where she was living at the time) probably left her unable to bear more children, and in her opinion, ir took her several years to regain her physical and mental health afterwards. Two letters (I believe), one to her writer friend Dorothy Thompson, and one to Charles and Joan Clark (friends who also lost a child), mention that Rose bore a son who died, and while this was tragic, tragedy was best viewed as a part of life everyone must face and accept. She also mentioned that she very rarely discussed the subject, and that few people who knew her later were aware of it, due to her preference to avoid discussing sad topics. It seems her reaction to this loss was similar to her mother's reaction to the death of her own newborn son. It seems Rose was not aware of the birth and death a week later of her baby brother until after her mother's death. Lane's penchant for "adopting" surrogate sons (Rexh Meta (whose Oxford education she subsdized), the Turner Boys of Mansfield, and of course, Roger Lea MacBride, clearly stemmed from the loss of her own child and subsequent divorce from her husband.

There are no biological heirs to Laura Ingalls Wilder. Her sister Mary, never married nor had children. Her sister Carrie had no biological children, but stepchildren only and her sister Grace married but had no children. Her brother died in infancy. Laura had 2 children, one was a son who died in infancy and her daughter Rose who also only bore one son who died in infancy. Her royalties are passed on to her daughter's godson's family (Roger MacBride) and her libraries and museum's.

The Homestead Act enthralled Laura's father, who spent a total of 10 years of his marriage moving his family from place to place to "make his bet with Uncle Sam" that he could fulfill all requirements to obtain title to his own farm. Laura's future husband Almanzo was just as enthused about the idea as Charles Ingalls was, but for both men - and Laura was an active part in both her father's and her husband's farm - it was a case of loopholes, fine print "gotcha"s

and above all else, uncooperative weather that soured them on the Homestead Act. Charles Ingalls wound up selling his claim as soon as he had it paid for, and Almanzo Wilder eventually decided to buy an existing farm that he would own outright (except for monthly mortgage payments, of course). The fliers posted at the time about the Homestead Act always carried the headline "FREE LAND!!" That "free land", in reality, bankrupted countless people.

She wrote Little House in the Big Woods. It told the story of her early childhood years in Wisconsin. Farmer Boy,an account of Laura's husband, Manly's childhood in New York state, followed in 1933. Two years later, Little House on the Prairie appeared on the shelves. Then On the Banks of Plum Creek (1937), By the Shores of Silver Lake (1939), The Long Winter (1940), Little Town on the Prairie(1941), and These Happy Golden Years (1943).

Laura Elizabeth Ingalls Wilder or Bess

Actually her nickname was given to her by Almanzo Wilder, later to become her husband, was Beth. Not Bess. He gave her that nickname from her middle name Elizabeth. Laura's nickname for Almanzo was Manly, even though his friends called him Manny.

Rose Wilder Lane died in her sleep.

Rose wilder lane was 82 when she died.

Laura worked as a seamstress and a teacher to help support the Ingalls family. When married, she helped Almanzo in their farming ventures and most successfuly supported them with royalties from her books.

She was an accomplished farmswoman; her husband known for saying he would rather have her help him on the farm than any man. She was renowned for raising poultry; her chickens laid eggs all year round. She also was a good cook and excellent with monetary figures.

Laura Ingalls married to Almanzo Wilder in 1885

Inmy opinkion? Yes, I like Laura as a name. But it really depends on the person who you are asking (or who is asking the question).... if you know what I mean.

She died at Rocky Ridge Farm in Mansfield, Missouri.

Almost certainly, as she lived in some very harsh conditions, although she was physically very strong. She never referred to any everyday illnesses and only recorded the scarlet fever, malaria, diptheria, and morning sickness she suffered.

In the Big Woods of Pepin, Wisconsin. As it says in her book Little House in the Big Woods. Laura Ingalls Wilder was born in Pepin, Wisconsin on February 7, 1867.

Laura Ingalls Wilder began writing her "Little House" series in her 60s, starting with "Little House in the Big Woods" published in 1932. The series is based on her experiences growing up on the American frontier in the late 19th century.

Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of the beloved â??Little House on the Prairieâ?? series had a sporadic early education. Since her family were settlers, she moved around a great deal and had little formal schooling, mainly teaching herself. In 1882, Laura successfully passed the test to become a teacher so she could help out her family financially.

Laura Ingalls Wilder is best known as the author of the Little House series of books written for children, but with broad historic appeal. The books detail the trials and events in her life as a pioneer girl in America, as the Ingalls family travelled west as land was opened up for settlement.

The Ingalls family, known from the "Little House on the Prairie" book series by Laura Ingalls Wilder, lived in various locations in the Midwestern United States, including Wisconsin, Kansas, Minnesota, and South Dakota.

If you're referring to the Mary Ingalls character from the Little House on the Prairie series, she did get married. To Adam, the blind man, remember? Adam Kendall was blind, but he regained his sight from an operation because he got blind from an injury rather than weakened nerves like with Mary. They ran a school for the blind as well. However, the actual Mary Ingalls never married or ran a school for the blind because blind women didn't marry back in those days, and the actual Mary probably didn't really have a desire to teach at a school for the blind. In real life, Mary lived with her parents until they passed away, and then lived with Grace and then with Carrie even later afterwards.

Helen was 20 when she wrote her first book, The Story of My Life.

Parents: Charles and Caroline Ingalls Sisters: Mary and Carrie and Grace Ingalls Brother: Charles Ingalls Husband: Almanzo Child: Grace

Laura still has relatives alive today, there are some in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Tucson. Although, they are cousins, Great Grandchildren of Peter Ingalls (Pa's older brother). The Charles Ingalls lineage died with Rose Wilder Lane.

Hmmm...6, I think.

She first lived in Pepin, Wisconsin. Then, the Ingalls family moved to "Indian Territory" in Kansas. They moved back to Pepin before going to Plum Creek, Minnesota. Next, they moved to De Smet, South Dakota, where Laura married Almanzo. Then, the two of them moved to Florida for about two years. Laura did not like the hot and humid climate; so they moved to Mansfield, Missouri, where they lived for about 55 to 65 years.

I think that Laura and Almanzo also visited a cousin (I think Laura's cousin Peter) for a few months in Louisiana. Though, I did not include that in the 6 places.
