Birth*24 April 1887Jessie C. Byers was born on 24 April 1887 in Rippey, Greene County, Iowa.1,2 
Name VariationHer full name was Jessie Clair Byers.2 
Death*1892She died from diphtheria in 1892, probably in Sarpy County, Nebraska, at about age 51,3 
Burial* and was buried in section 8, row 6, grave 26, of Laurel Hill Cemetery, Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska.3,1 
(Sibling) Illness1892Jessie had probably been living with her parents and siblings near Albright, Sarpy County, Nebraska, when their family was hit by diphtheria in 1892. Three of their young children had died before the middle of June when an Omaha newspaper reported the death of their 9-year-old daughter, Codo Byers, on June 15 and mentioned that she was the third death from the disease in her family. There was concern as additional cases of diphtheria were being reported and the city of Omaha was taking steps they hoped would keep the disease from becoming an epidemic. The disease was reported to have been the most prevalent at Albright where seven new cases had been reported the day before the news article was published. From our review of the 1892 deaths and burials in the Laurel Hill Cemetery, we believe the other two deaths, before Codo's, in the Byers family from diphtheria that year were her siblings, Jessie C. Byers and Charley Byers.3,1,4,5
