Source: National Archives.
From a deposition taken from Amanda (Lattin) Long of Humboldt Kansas, the sister of Catherine Bumpus, in the late 1890's in the matter of a Widows Pension application filed on behalf of Mary A Bumpus, second wife of Samuel Bumpus, Pvt. 8 Indiana Vol Infantry, I quote the following: "Samuel was working in Carthage. My sister Catherine died in my home the morning after he husband Samuel Bumpus returned from Carthage. Samuel took her back to be burried by her father". Catherine Bumpus was the daughter of Dimmick Lattin who was burried in the Sidensticker Graveyard in 1872.

A deposition taken on Oct 20, 1893 from Amanda Long of Humboldt, Allen Co., KA. during the Government investigation in the matter of a widows Pension applied for my Mary Amanda Bumpus, second wife of Samuel Bumpus who died in Aug 1885 of illness contracted in the Union army in 1862. The deposition stated in part by Amanda (lattin Long): " My sister Catherine Bumpus died in my home the next morning after her husband Samuel Bumpus returned from Carthage where he had been working. He took her back to be burried by her father and left the children with me."
The deposition sets the death date at early in 1876. Catherine Bumpus was the daughter of Dimmick and Serena(Taylor) Lattin. Dimmick was burried in the Sidensticker Graveyard in 1872 at the age of 72.
