It looks to me as tho Ella June Meade was an elocutionist who travelled the midwest in the 1870-80 era. I see her performanced noted in Iowa, Illinois, and New York State. She lived in Afton NY, and married Luther B. Cake around 1883. He was an author. Born in 1850, she's last listed in the 1930 census as a widow, and appears to be living in an institution.
