Mrs. Ella May Groves.
Mrs. Ella May Groves of Drumright, Okla. died in the hospital there early Sunday morning after a few hours dangerous illness with blood poison, aged 26 years and 12 days. The remains were brought to Fletcher on Monday and taken to the home of her father, W. O. Hunt, where funeral services were conducted by Rev. D. L. Hinckley at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, after which the body was laid to rest in the Elgin cemetery. She had been in poor health for about three years and physicians advised an operation, to which she would not consent until a short time before she died. She was then taken to the hospital but it was found that her heart action was not strong enough to permit the operation. She was resting and waiting to gain strength and ate a rather hearty meal Saturday evening but took suddenly worse near midnight and lived only a few hours.

Ella May Hunt was born April 20, 1889. She was converted at the age of 13 years and united with the Methodist church South at Shawnee. In November, 1904, she was united in marriage with Alva Groves at Lawton, who with two sons, Olen and Glen, aged 7 and 9, survives her. She is also survived by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Hunt, one sister, Mrs. H. E. Parry of Shawnee, and five brothers, Nuck and Bail Hunt of Shawnee and Shay, Will and Frank of near Elgin. All were present at the funeral but Mrs. Parry and Bail Hunt of Shawnee, who were unable to attend, the former on account of slckness. [Farmers' champion. (Elgin, Okla.), May 05, 1915]

Ella May Hunt was married at the age of 15 to Alva Louis Groves, age 25. Their first son Olen was born two years later in 1906 followed by Glen M in 1908. Seven years later, Ella May Hunt died a suspicious death in 1915, the same year Alva's third wife was born. His second wife also died a suspicious death, and his third wife disappeared in 1954 at the age of 39 never to be seen again. A lot of mystery surrounds Alva Grove's wives deaths.
