Eleanor Bradley Peters left her high class home in New York and moved to a small apartment Thiaucourt, France to be by her son (who was killed in WWI), Edward's grave. She stayed in that small apartment until she died in 1941.

From The NY Times (2014): After the armistice, 53-year-old Eleanor Bradley-Peters moved out of her elegant New York home and into a small apartment near Thiaucourt, France; she never left, even after the Germans returned in 1940. When she died, the next year, she was buried in Thiaucourt’s town cemetery, in a plot near the gate. She chose it because it was the nearest one to the St.-Mihiel American Cemetery, about a mile away; among the 4,153 Americans buried there is her son, First Lt. Edward McClure Peters, of the First Division’s Machine Gun Battalion. He was killed on March 3, 1918 — four months to the day after Gresham, Hay and Enright died at Bathelémont. A proud stone eagle sits in the middle of St.-Mihiel atop a pedestal bearing the inscription: Time shall not dim the glory of their deeds. I’m sure that Lieutenant Peters’s mother — who also designed her own gravestone, a white cross identical to her son’s — read those words many times in the 23 years she lived nearby.
