Her untimely death at the age of 23 during childbirth, on February 24, 1912, her father, Dr. Henry van Dyke, a Princeton University professor, poet, and diplomat, and her husband Guy Richard McLane, a New York City stockbroker, formed and incorporated the Dorothea van Dyke McLane Association to serve Princeton's growing Italian community. Dorothea's House was established on February 6, 1913, as a memorial to Dorothea van Dyke McLane, a volunteer social worker who ministered to the needs of Princeton's newly arrived Italian immigrants in the early 1900s. They created the non-profit association to establish a living memorial to Dorothea van Dyke McLane, wife of Mr. McLane and daughter of Dr. van Dyke. A year earlier (Feb. 24, 1912), Dorothea and her infant daughter died during childbirth. They are buried in the van Dyke family plot of the historic Princeton Cemetery.⁴

     Due to a need for men to serve during World War I, the United States instituted a draft. The first registration was for men between the ages of 21 and 31. As a result, this first registration included men born between June 5, 1886 and June 5, 1896. As World War I continued to escalate, the United States instituted a second draft registration. The second registration was for men who had turned 21 since June 5, 1917, so it added men born between June 5, 1896 and June 5, 1897. Two months later, a supplemental registration was held on August 24, 1918 for men who had become 21 years of age since June 5, 1918, adding the names of men who were born between June 5, 1897 and August 24, 1897. With no end in sight for World War I, the United States instituted it's third and final registration. It included all men who were between the ages of 18 and 21, and 31 to 45 years of age. This added younger men than the previous registrations, those who were born between September 12, 1897 and September 12, 1900; and added an older group of men, born between September 12, 1873 and September 12, 1888. Dorsey filled out a draft card for World War I on 12 September 1918 (at age 37), while living at Greenup, Cumberland, Illinois. He was employed as signal fireman and described as height, medium and medium build with blue eyes and light hair..²
