She's old enough bro.

Laura was buried in the Mansfield Cemetery, Mansfield, Wright County. This is the town near which Laura and Almanzo lived at Rocky Ridge Farm.

One listed cause of Laura's death is from a stroke. This may be confusion with her sister Mary's cause of death. Other sources cite a heart attack as the cause. Either way, Laura, Carrie and Grace all died from diabetes-related causes in an era when treatment for the disease was much more primitive

Mary Ingalls is famous for being one of the main characters in the "Little House on the Prairie" book series written by Laura Ingalls Wilder, her sister. The series chronicles the adventures and hardships of the Ingalls family as they pioneer in the American Midwest during the late 19th century.

Laura Ingalls Wilder died at the age of 90 from a stroke in 1957. She was a beloved author known for her "Little House on the Prairie" book series, which continues to be cherished by readers of all ages.

Yes, Laura's daughter Rose Wilder Lane was an accomplished writer and journalist. She worked in various writing roles throughout her life and even collaborated with her mother on some of the later "Little House" books.

Laura Ingalls married Almanzo Wilder, a homesteader, on August 25, 1885. She was 18, he was 28.

Laura Ingalls Wilder taught around 12 students in a one-room schoolhouse during her time as a schoolteacher in De Smet, South Dakota.

Paul Cooley continued to live on the Rocky Ridge Farm after Rose Wilder Lane's death in 1968. He managed the farm and helped preserve it as a historic site. Cooley passed away in 2008 at the age of 96.

Laura Ingalls' brother-in-law was Almanzo Wilder, who was married to Laura's sister, Caroline “Carrie” Ingalls. Almanzo played a significant role in Laura's life, particularly during her time living in De Smet, South Dakota.

Caroline Ingalls was the mother of Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of the "Little House on the Prairie" book series. She was married to Charles Ingalls and played a central role in the family's pioneer life in the American Midwest during the late 19th century.

Laura Ingalls Wilder lived in a time where music was generated by local talent. Most small communities at the time would have a local guitar, clawhammer banjo, and several fiddle players. In her writings she mentions many times that Pa played the fiddle really well!!! Mary, her sister could also play the piano!!! Many of the songs are mentioned. Most of the songs would be classified as old time fiddle music. Songs mentioned in the books are: Pop goes the Weasel, Devil's Dream, Arkansas Traveler, Buffalo Gals, Yankee Doodle, Irish Washerwoman, Auld Lang Syne, Rock of Ages, Dixie, Ring-around-a-Rosy, When Johnnie Comes Marching Home, Camptown Races, 3 Blind Mice, Highland Fling, Sweet By and By, The Star Spangled Banner, Jingle Bells, Polly Wolly Doodle, and many others. Later in life she probably would have heard the early beginnings of jazz, country, and even Rock and Roll (she passed away in the late 50s). I don't think she would like it though!

In the books Laura tends to favor red and brown, although this might have been Ma's influence, as she seemed to feel that certain colors suited Laura's dark hair colour, while others were better suited for her sister Mary's golden hair. In On the Banks of Plum Creek, Laura and Mary are thrilled to find that Ma has accidentally given Laura blue ribbons and Mary pink ribbons, as both are tired of the other.

In Little House in the Big Woods, On the Banks of Plum Creek and By the Shores of Silver Lake, Laura's dresses are consistently described respectively as "dark, wine-coloured red calico", "golden-brown flannel trimmed with red braid" and "red-sprigged on brown"; Mary's, alternatively, are "a china-blue pattern", "dark blue wool" and "blue-sprigged on grey".

In Little House on the Prairie Pa brings each girl a black hairband with a coloured star carved into it from Independence; again Laura's is red and Mary's blue. Later on in the series Laura receives a red and gold autograph album from Ma and Pa; Carrie receives a blue one.

However, In These Happy Golden Years Laura earns enough money to buy several yards of brown poplin to make herself a dress, which is then trimmed with blue ribbon which matches her eyes. Besides the ribbon incident mentioned in Plum Creek, Laura seems fairly content with the colours she wears, so I think it's safe to say that they were her favourites, possibly because they suited her best.

Laura Ingalls Wilder met Almanzo Wilder in 1882. They were married in 1885.

Laura Ingalls Wilder was famous for writing the "Little House on the Prairie" series of children's books, which were based on her own childhood experiences growing up on the American frontier in the late 19th century. Her books have become beloved classics and have inspired several TV adaptations.
