• Name	PULSIFER Alameda
  Birth	03 Jul 1858	Crown Point, Essex Co., NY
  Gender	Female
  Death	08 Mar 1885	Seymour, CT
  Notes	She commited suicide over the break up of a man (William A. Douglass) whom she had been living with as his wife but they were probably not married. He was married to someone else. She went to the Wilbur House in Seymour and asked for a room for the night. The next day they found her ill and discovered an empty ounce vial of Laudanum in her bag. Doctors were called but could not save her. They found a letter among her things writted in pathetic strain, unbraiding Mr. Douglass for his desertion of her. It is believed this 10 Mar 1885 was her reason for taking her life.N.Y. times
