Charlotte "Lottie"
(Overfield) Born
( ? - ? )

Charlotte "Lottie" (Overfield) Born was born in West Virginia, the daughter of John Edgar and Sarah (Hanshaw) Overfield.

She married (?) Born. They had one son, Edgar Born.

Circa 1908, the Borns resided in Reedsville, Preston County, WV.  

At the death of her uncle Dr. Guy Hanshaw in 1908, Lottie was entitled to 1/48 share of the estate, which included lucrative oil and gas wells. She received an immediate payout from the estate of $38.54 in 1909. At intervals over the years, through 1942, she received royalty payments from the wells. The high point was in 1918, when she received $16.36. In total, she received $171.74 in inheritance. 

At some time before 1937, the Borns moved west, settling in Kansas. In 1937, they were residing in the town of Lebo.

Unfortunately, the fate of the Borns is unknown.
