Frances Winlock had TB for about two years. She "cured" at 36 Kiwassa Road and died at Saranac Lake on or about 18 November 1935, aged 21.

Her parents were [Winlock], one of America's most distinguished Egyptologists and Director of the Metropolitan Museum, and his wife Helen Chandler Winlock, of an old Boston family.
