Lauretta Short 1 2
- Born: 12 September 1867, Greenville, CA 1 2
- Marriage (1): James Andrew Springgate in 1886 1
- Died: 1942 at age 75 2
- Buried: 1942, Harrisburg, OR 2
 General Notes:
The only document found so far that shows Laura's surname is the birth record for her daughter, Meldon Anna Springgate. On that record it indicates that her name was Laura Short.
The 1880 US Census of Plumas County, California shows Laura living with her parents, William and Maria Short, as well as 5 other siblings. Her age would indicate a birth year of 1868 or 1869 instead of the expected Sep 1867.
