bullet  General Notes:


If the family had moved to Lee County, Iowa Territory just before 1840 and appeared on the census there in 1840, then Lucinda's birth location should probably be in Iowa instead of Pennsylvania.

Her gravestone is badly worn and broken but it appears to give her birth year as 1847 instead of 1841. She appears on the 1850 US Census with an age of 9 so the gravestone is probably being misread as 1847 instead of 1841.
