Dorothy Louise Batchellor[1][2]
was born on 27 October 1896,[1]
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania[1][3]
to Daniel Batchellor[4]
and Anna Marie Harper.[5]
(Her marriage record clearly reports her mother's family name as 'Parker',[1] but better evidence (including her father's death certificate[5]) consistently indicates it was 'Harper'.)
In 1900, she was living with her family at 1130 Mount Vernon Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[6]
In 1910, she was living with her family at 454 West Bringhurst Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
She was attending school.[7]
On 27 October 1917, she married Frank Kenneth Campion, at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
He was a contractor, and lived at 133 W. Seamore Street, Germantown, Philadelphia.
She was a pianist, and lived at 5148 Larchwood avenue, Philadelphia.[1]
They had no known children.
In 1920, Kenneth and Dorothy were living at 225 Central Avenue, Miami, Dade County, Florida, lodging with Harry S Ramsey.
Neither of them were working.[8]
By 24 February 1923, Kenneth had filed for divorce from Dorothy.[2]
She married James E. Hewes.
They had no children.[9]
On 21 November 1985, she died, apparently in New London, Connecticut.[9]
