She was married to John Buchanan on February 22, 1863 in Kansas. Together they had five children: Orlo Roscoe Buchanan, Dora Annetta Buchanan, Idella Lorraine Buchanan, Clara Elizabeth Buchanan, and Florence Nightingale Buchanan.

She was survived by her three daughters Dora Annetta Beamer, Idella Lorraine Robb, & Florence Nightingale Blanton, two granddaughters Lena Beamer and Lotus Robb , three great grand kids Victor Reynolds , Viola Reynolds , and Beatrice Robb.

Laurena is my 3x great grandmother. I will not transfer her memorial page. I will make edits, if I feel they are correct. Most of my information has come directly from her Holy Bible, marriage certificates, death certificate and other family sources.
