My great grandmother was friends with the other night nurse. They decided to switch shifts for that night earlier in the week. She had a hard time accepting that she was supposed to be there instead. Just an extra tidbit I found interesting. My mom remembers Elizabeth. She and my uncle found one of the coffins half way exposed in the yard. They thought it was a shipping box from a boat. So they knocked on the door and she came with them to examine what they were talking about. It ends up the relatives were buried coffin to coffin the long way. They were pushing each other out of each side. So on the other side one had already fallen into the water, another was halfway out of the cliff and decomposing (thankfully they didn't find that side, being they were kids). She had the lawn reconstructed and set them to rest properly. Apparently she was pretty old at this time, so it must have been quite a fright.
Elisabeth was killed in Helen's room. Velma the nurse was killed on the stairs landing/bench seat.
Bedroom and stairs
