She came to Lusk in 1919 and took a position with the First National Bank of Lusk. On Sept. 9, 1922 she and John Wesley Wolfe were married in Denver.

During World War II Mrs. Wolfe was home service chairman for the Niobrara Chapter of the American Red Cross and as such she was in charge of helping servicemen to get home during emergencies.
