Summary

Mrs. Telles O’Brien was reported taken to Grandvue Medical Facility on New Year’s Day 1962 after several months of ill health.

Evidence and limits

The unusual Telles/Tellis O’Brien name bridge identifies her as Tellis (Twining) O’Brien (1875–1969). The cemetery source supplies years only; the hospital notice gives no diagnosis or medical record.
