The FindAGrave entry for Kazimiera Pels has no biographical information, and a web search for the name turned up only 4 hits, of which only 2 were in English. She was born on 4 March 1889 and died just over 102 years later on 28 March 1991.

The year she was born was the year of the Oklahoma Land Rush; four states were added to the United States: North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and Washington; Johnstown, PA was inundated by a horrific flood; and the Eiffel Tower was opened to the public.

The year that she died the internet was opened up for commercial use, and the number of computers connected reached 1 million; the first release of the Linux kernel was developed by Linus Torvalds; and the web browser was invented by Tim Berners-Lee.

What a lot of changes in her lifetime!
