While she appears on the 1900 census as Lizzie Z., we think the census taker was confused and this is the Mary Elizabeth Donaho b. 02 aug 1888 who married Estel Roby.

His obituary was found in a scrapbook of undated newspaper clippings in the public library at Keosauqua, Iowa:
William Clark Donaho was born in Van Buren county, Iowa, on the 22nd day of February, 1874, and lived continuously in this county until Feb. 4, 1930, being at the time of his death, 55 years, 11 months and 13 days old.
Mr. Dnoaho [sic] has been a patient sufferer for over a year and has spent a major part of the time, since his affliction, in and out of the hospital, a part of the time in Omaha, then Des Moines, and the last two months in the Ozark Sanatorium, Hot Springs National Park, Ark.
Mr. Donaho is well and favorably known, and has been before the public in this county since about 1900. He was first elected as assessor in his home township and held that office for several years, and then was elected deputy County Auditor, and immediately following that was elected County Auditor, and held that office for two terms. The remark is frequently made that his records as County Auditor are about as complete as human records are to be found.
Since leaving the County Auditor's office, Mr. Donaho has been interested in the real estate and loan business in Keosauqua, Iowa. He had a large acquaintance, not only in his county, but all over the state, and transacted much business, much of which was very important. He was the local representative of the Chicago Joint Stock Land Bank for southeastern Iowa for a period of 10 years and more.
In addition to a host of friends, he leaves to mourn his departure, his mother, Florence Donaho of Mt. Sterling, and two sisters, Mrs. Zella Weller of Mnitoba [sic], Canada, and Mrs. Lizzie Roby of Milton, Iowa, and one brother, John E. Donaho of Milton, Iowa.
He was a member of the Methodist church of Keosauqua, Iowa, and was a member of Lodge No. 10 A.F. and A.M. of Keosauqua, Iowa.
One of Mr. Donaho's chief pleasures was to help a friend in need; and he has many a good deed to his credit.
Funeral services were held on Saturday afternoon at the M.E. church in Keosauqua, Rev. J. C. Caughlan of Milton delivering the address, Rev. M. D. Cox assisting in the service, and the music by a male quarter, William and Wayne Davidson, [Ora] Williams and Walter Beer and a duet by Rev. and Mrs. Caughlan, [sic] Interment in Mt. Sterling cemetery. --------------------------- We desire to thank the neighbors and friends for their kindness and sympathy in our bereavement.
Mrs. J. W. Donaho. Mrs. Zella Weller, Mrs. Estel Roby, J. E. Donaho.
Or, depending on how the obituary is read, he may have died at Warm Springs, Arkansas, where he had been in a sanitarium for about two months.

middle initial appears only in 1846 deed naming heirs of William Bryant "late of Sullivan County".
She was murdered during a Memorial Day celebration in Cantril, Van Buren Co., IA, when Edward Hale, a man who worked for her father, abruptly shot her and then attempted to kill himself. The records were puzzling until we realized that Zora Dell had a sister Zella Mae.
