A Wilson Family Tree

Notes for Lydia Ann Fought



There is a death certificate for her on Ancestry.com (Pennsylvania Death Certificates 1906-1966), which gives her date of birth as 24 Aug 1848. However, in the censuses her age is consistently older than that, except for maybe the 1900 census (not sure if I have found the right person in 1900; can't find husband John). It looks to me like she shaved a couple years off her age later in her life and the birth in 1848 is incorrect. That helps make her not so young when she married and had children, too.

The name on her death certificate is Lydia A. Stackhouse. Cause of death was endocarditis and hypertrophy of the heart. Place of death is given as Jordan Twp., Lycoming Co., PA. Her father's name is given as Jacob Fought, but her mother's name is not listed.
