#1-Ms. or Mrs.
I think Glenora Jean Prott was a Ms., not a Mrs., but maybe you have a different opinion.
Here’s the way I figured it:
1. She told us that she and Elaine were the Prott sisters.
2. That meant that they both had the same last name.
3. In the olden days women always changed their last name when they got married.
4. Glenora Jean was still a Prott, so she didn’t change her name.
5. Therefore, she never got married and was Ms. Prott.
Please tell me if you think I am wrong or you have a different way to figure this out.

When she was flinging her hands around, there was no wedding ring.
She might have worn one when she was married and then removed it after her husband died.
I just thought of another one… THE PROTT SISTERS COULD BE INLAWS!!!!!!
Yes, Ronald you could be right but there are many possibilitys you didn’t think over my example that could be likely is… That Ms./Mrs.Prott is or was married to a cousin. Now you may think that is and maybe as illegale in the olden days and current days but she could’ve gotten married in Virginia for it is not illegale there. You can even ask Gleen. (But you are the author not me so you make it how you want it)
THX FOR LETTING ME POST MY OPINION HERE!

That is very good research. You might be right.
She was a ms. because she was never married,
She might have
A:Divorced with her husband
B:she didn’t get married “in the old days” and neither of them changed their names
C: in the same scenario as B, only the husband changed his last name to hers.
Not sure. Definitely something worth thinking about!

Just because her last name is Prott does not mean that her maiden last name was Prott. Maybe her husband’s last name is Prott and his sister married someone else who coincidentally his last name is Prott.
It’s possible, but not likely. Good thinking, however.
ms because i read the chapter
I have three.
1:She could have got divorced.
2:She could have got maried and her husband might have changed his last name instead.
3:Her husband might have died and she changed her last name back.
You would make a good detective.
thank you
Maybe the prott sisters married brothers and therefore, they have the same last name
That is really clever. Maybe…
Hey! I thought of that just when I read it!
Exactly what I thought!
but it is illegal to marry your own family.
