Lizzie Borden - Net Worth

Definition: Lizzie Borden amassed a small fortune during her life.

Lizzie Borden amassed a small fortune during her life. At her death, her book collection alone was valued at $1,134.75. Her two cars - a 1923 Lincoln and a 1924 Buick - were assessed at $1,425. Altogether, the estate was worth just more than $310,000, equivalent to about $4 million today. Her sister's estate was worth a little more.

In her will, Lizzie left more than $50,000 to the Animal Rescue League of Fall River.

Frank W. Knowlton, son of Hosea M. Knowlton, one of the prosecutors who tried to convict Lizzie Borden of murder, noted her passing.

After Lizzie's death, Frank Knowlton, wrote a letter to Edmund Pearson, the author of a book on the Borden murders.

He noted that Lizzie was buried next to her father and stepmother.

"I wonder," he wrote, "if she will rest in peace."
