Life After the War
Both women maintained their ties with Hicksville. Bergold married; she and her husband, Charles Camden, settled down on Newbridge Road, adjacent to a farm owned by one of her siblings. She worked as a nurse in a doctor’s office. Elise Bergold Camden passed away in 1962 and was buried at Plain Lawn Cemetery.
Keller lived on East John Street and worked as a nurse for Nassau County. She outlived the younger Bergold by 13 years, dying in 1975 at the age of 90. Her grave marker proclaims her service in the Great War.
