Biography: 

Although not given a name in this novel, Eula's daughter Linda is a primary character in both The Town and The Mansion. The Hamlet recounts the events related to her conception, birth and early life in Yoknapatawpha. While it's not made explicit, Eula conceives out of wedlock when she loses her virginity to Hoake McCarron. After Eula's marriage to Flem Snopes, the couple travels to Texas where Linda is presumably born. Mrs. Eula Snopes returns to Yoknapatawpha shortly after the baby's birth, but it is clear that the timeline is suspicious, since the baby is described as "too large to have been born at only seven months" (402).
