Izerlyn suffered a mental breakdown shortly after Isreal's death and spent the remainder of her days in Weston State Hospital, Weston, Lewis Co., West Virginia, a hospital for the insane. She died there at the age of 63, January 3, 1920. She is buried the the Weston State Hospital Cemetery located behind the old Weston State Hospital which closed in 1994. At the present time the State of West Virginia is trying to restore the Cemeteries (there is three), however, all stones were removed from the graves in 1950 by the lawnkeeper to make it easier for him to mow. Therefore there is no way to ever know who is in which grave.
