Adelaide H. Dunlop, a 1955 graduate of East Hampton High School, died on Feb. 10 in Venice, Fla., where she had been living since 2006. She was 84.

Ms. Dunlop’s second husband, James Dunlop, died before her. A previous marriage, to William Coyle in 1956, ended in divorce.

A daughter, Therese Coyle Field, also died before her. She leaves two children, Christina Bertrand and John Coyle. She is also survived by her grandchildren, Scott Bertrand, Lee Bertrand, Tanner Bertrand, Addie Kelley, William Field, Brian Field, Henry Uihlein Jr., Kyle Coyle, and Drew Coyle. She leaves eight great-grandchildren.
