Beatrice Nathalie Holderness taught at the Browne school for the 1924 - 1925 school year, following the 3 years taught by Jennie Male.
Beatrice Nathalie Holderness was born in DeKalb, DeKalb county Illinois on December 25, 1902 to Cara (Carrie) Dell Caswell and Thomas Burton Holderness. The 1900 US Census lists Beatrice living (lines 63 - 67) with her parents and siblings, Florence and Golda in DeKalb, Illinois.

The 1930 US Census lists Beatrice living (lines 55 - 60) with her parents Bert and Carrie and sisters Florence, Golda and Elizabeth in DeKalb, Illinois.

The 1940 US Census lists Beatrice living (lines 15 - 17) as a lodger at the home of Lillian and Roy Skorborg in DeKalb, Illinois. Beatrice is employed as a seamstress for interior decorating.
