NOTE: In the above obit, it shows her father as William Madden. In "First Families of Flagler," Mary Ketus Deen Holland shows her as Evelyn Fontaine. Perhaps, she was married to a "Fontaine" perviously. The compiler was unable to find her in either the 1920 or 1930 census records either as a Madden or a Fontaine.
