Elma's FindAGrave entry does not list her maiden name. She was born on 10 May 1896, and eventually married Robert Green Bowling (1892-1935). After he passed away in 1935 she married Early P. Young (1901-1976).

She found herself widowed again at 80 years old, but lived on another 23 years to almost 103 years old, passing away on 17 March 1999. She is buried next to her first husband under the Bowling name. (Her FindAGrave entry incorrectly lists Bowling as her maiden name -- italicized -- rather than just mentioning her first husband in the description, as I have done here.)
