Paul, Joe Bauer died in August 1937.
I have written about 10,000 words of research and have read more than I can remember on Joe Bauer and the Arrowhead. I do not remember ever running across his wife's name. I will call Danny Nason later today. Sam and Harold Nason sent Joe's wife money every month after Joe died in 1937 until her death. I think I remember Danny saying she was still alive when he took over the 5911 in 1952.
I do know she moved to Texas after Joe died.
