Notes for Alice Irene SLY
“This is a rumor or “story” I heard: Alice was not Sanford Sly's biological daughter. Lucy was pregnant when they got married. He raised her as his own. No one knows who the real father is or wouldn't talk about it. “ --Information from Dode Lininger 2001
1920 Census lists her last name as “Sweet” and as a step-daughter to Sanford.100
Looked for her birth record in both the “Birth Certificates, 1800 - 1939” (F 1871893) and “Vital Records: birth records, 1867 - 1909” (F 422271) and did not find it. I wonder if she was born in Wood County, or if she was registered as a “Sly”?

DAUGHTER OF MR. AND MRS. SLY DIED AT TUCSON
Mrs. Alice Bierman, aged 28, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sanford Sly of this place, passed away at her home in Tucson Tuesday afternoon, after a lingering illness.
Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Sly went over to Tucson and spent the day with her last Sunday, and although she was in a weakend condition, they did not realize the end was so near. They returned Sunday night and Monday received word that she was very low. Mrs. Sly returned immediately to her daughter’s bedside and was with her during her last hours.
Mr. and Mrs. Sly and son Billy came here a few years ago From Bowling Green, Ohio, with Alice hoping the climate of sunny southern Arizona would benefit her, and for a time it was believed she had completely regained her health.
She was later married to Mr. C. C. Bierman and has since made her home in Tucson. About a year ago Mrs. Bierman suffered a siege of pneumonia from which she never fully recovered.
Besides her husband and parents, Mrs. Bierman is survived by her brother Billy of Buckeye and two sisters, Mrs. Clarence Baker, and Mrs. Osborn Lashway, both of Bowling Green, Ohio.
Funeral services will be held Saturday afternoon at Tucson.
The sympathy of the community is with the bereaved ones in their hour of sorrow.
