MABEL LINDLY The friends of Miss Mabel Lindly were shocked to learn of her death in Lincoln, October 10, 1935, at the age of 62 years. She had resided in Lincoln since coming here with her parents when she was fourteen years old, and had graduated from Lincoln High School, and had taken her bachelor's degree at the University of Nebraska in 1895.

For many years Miss Lindly took a keen interest in genealogy, first as an amateur and later as a professional worker. Early in 1923 she became one of the founders and a charter member of the Nebraska Genealogical Society and served for five years as the first editor of the Nebraska and Midwest Genealogical Record, which it publishes.

Miss Lindly had been an active member of the Colonial Dames of America, Daughters of the American Revolution, and Daughters of Founders and Patriots of America. Her genealogical library, which was quite valuable, was given to the Lincoln City Library, shortly before her death.
