Identifying Lora Crozetti[edit]

This conversation on Wikipedia suggests 'Lora' may have been a nickname or pen name for Ruth.

If so (and I think this pans out), I believe she was born 18 May 1913 as Ruth Gentry Warner to Harry William Warner and Evelyn A. Dae Roberson (née Morgan), who moved from LA to Wisconsin around 1947 with her daughter Mrs. Ruth Krozetti. It looks like she went there to take care of her mom, because in the 1950 census she was back with husband Jay and daughter Jeannette M[argaret].

The 1944 LA County voter list included a Mrs Lora Ruth Crozetti, which ties the first names together.

And Shangri L'Affaires mentioned that "Introduced as '3 generations of fans' were Lora Crozetti, her Mother—Mrs Eva Roberson, and her daughter—Jeanne Crozetti."

So I think Lora Crozetti was Lora Ruth Gentry (née Warner) Crozetti (18 May 1913–24 November 1980), buried with her husband Jay Crozetti (4 August 1915–8 Nov 1952). And I think she was also the author of The Widderburn Horror.

Which... if this Ancestry family tree is accurate, means she was also the sister of Helen Finn.
