Sherrie and Cora Simpson
Cora was the youngest daughter of Gustave and Henrietta Evert.
They are buried in the Medaryville Town Cemetery, White Post Township, Pulaski County, Indiana.
She being the only child to remain living in the area, the Simpsons managed the hotel property until 1939.
She was sued by her siblings in a dispute over the rental proceeds for the properties. The suit led to the hotel being sold to Bayard Planck.
Her husband, who had come to Medaryville from rural Francesville (his family appears in the biographical history of the county) was an early Medaryville entrepreneur. He built and operated an opera house ("The Primo Theater") just across the tracks from the hotel, and later operated an insurance and realty business in the Drummer's House, which had been deeded over to the Simpsons before Gustave Evert's death.
