The two available census records agree as to the birth year, giving 1843. The headstone transcription on Find A Grave gives a birth year of 1851 based on her date of death and the age given on the stone ("22y 11m 15d"). Marriage license for her and Conrad Weckman gives her age over 18 years in May 1864--it is extremely unlikely she could have been only 13 at the time. We conclude the age transcription on Find A Grave is simply one decade short.

Miller, Margaret (I2972)

4002

The two available sources only give a birth year

Miller, Hannah (I2923)

4003

The two sources differ between 20 and 21 Apr 1898

Westrich, Elizabeth (I4317)

4004

The various sources for her birth date vary widely and, as in the case of her death certificate, can even be self-contradictory. We chose a date that seems likely given her marriage date, the birth dates of her children and the dates given on the various sources

Estes, Malissa Ann (I889)

4005

The wedding was officiated by W W Crabtree, "a minister of the gospel" at Mrs. Lawson's home.

The will is worded rather poorly. To wife Jemima: all possessions until youngest son Jacob reaches adulthood; to wife Jemima: one third of estate should she marry or when youngest son Jacob reaches adulthood; to children Martin Hull, Silas Hull, Benjamin Hull, Stephen Hull, Isaac Hull, William & Jacob Hull, Elizabeth Barnes, Mary Moon, and Ann Hull: equal division of all possessions less wife Jemima's share; at Jemima's death her portion to be divided equally among the children; wife Jemima Hull executrix

Hull, Benjamin (I1956)

The will of husband John Reddington, 7 Nov 1690, mentions a "wife now living" but does not name her; no Mary Reddington is listed in Topsfield town death records (3 Jan 2018)

Proved 23 Oct 1572

Denne, William (I345)

4010

The year given here is probably five to ten years too late, but there is only one source that gives any date at all.

McKillip, Margaret (I413)

4011

The year is written with a cross in the margin of his baptism record

Heinemann, Matheus (I2696)

4012

Then a part of Bedford Co., Pennsylvania

Barton, George (I3031)

4013

Then in Norfolk Co., Massachusetts

Roberts, Anne (I4159)

4014

There are a couple possible birth records for this man in Concord, Middlesex, Massachusetts, if some freedom in the spelling of the surname is allowed (Hayward vs. Haywood vs. Harwood vs. Heyood vs. Heywood vs. Heyward)

Hayward, John (I2279)

4015

There are several potential death/burial records in the Magland register for Louis François Perrolaz. None refer to him by his full name. However, marriage records for his children do refer to him by his full name, and two of them bracket his death by only a year, the later referring to him as "feu" or "late."

Perrolaz, Louis François (I4743)

4016

There are two sources for her birth that differ by about 10 years. We accept the baptism as it was closest to the event

Schwartz, Magdalena (I2584)

4017

There is a death record in Beverly, Essex, Massachusetts for a John Heberd, d. 26 Mar 1718; it cannot be conclusively tied to this man

Hibbert, John (I2295)

4018

There is a death record of a Hannah Smith in Lexington, 13 Dec 1732

Tidd, Hannah (I4228)

4019

There is a good chance she was born in a settlement then called "Quaboag Plantation", where her grandfather and at least two uncles had moved to from Ipswich in about 1668; they returned by 1675; no record of her father having moved there but it is a possibility

Hovey, Abigail (I3553)

4020

There is a grave of a William Smart (died 1795) in Rutherford Co., some researchers make him Joseph's father and give two brothers who fought in the Revolutionary War.

Smart, Joseph (I1168)

4021

There is a high likelihood that Anna Maria Daul was his former mother-in-law; she was godmother to Anna Maria Frick; married to Johannes Georg Kohr in 1738 in Graufthal

Laubacher, Jacob (I2548)

4022

There is a high likelihood that he was the son of Ulrich Laubacher and Ursula Gebert/Gebhardt. Many researchers give this relationship, but we have never seen a source cited nor have we found one independently. Ulrich and Ursula appear to be the only Laubacher couple who were recently of child-bearing age in Veckersviller in the early 1700s. Ulrich d. 28 Aug 1717 in Veckersviller (registry); Ursula d. 8 May 1728 aged over 60 (number hidden in the gutter of the book; Veckersviller registry).

If Sebastian is a son of this couple, he appears to be one of their younger children. Others include:

Bartholemy, b. abt. 1678 (death record), m. Catherine Lehmann in Veckersviller 1 Aug 1711, d. 21 Dec 1747 and bur. 23 Dec 1747 in Veckersviller (Veckersviller registry)
Jean Michel, bap. 26 Jun 1685 in Saverne (Saverne registry) to parents living in Idersthal/Ottersthal, though Ursula is given as "von Dannberg"; m. 1st Marie Madeleine Lehmann in Veckersviller 18 Nov 1710 (Schalbach registry); m. 2nd Susanne Schwartz in Veckersviller on 3 Apr 1736 (Veckersviller registry), may be bur. 8 Aug 1736 in Veckersviller (Veckersviller registry).
Joseph, bap. 13 Aug 1687 in Saverne, Bas-Rhin, FRA; m. Madeleine Hinsberger of Montbronn on 11 Jan 1718 in Veckersviller. Joseph appears in Veckersviller records as Godfather in the baptism of Joseph Gillet on 10 Aug 1711. His baptism gives Ulrich Laubacher and Ursula Gebhart as parents living in Ottersthal near Saverne.
Marie Catherine, b. abt. 1692 (death record), m. Christophe Metzger 13 Sep 1707 in Veckersviller (Schalbach registry), d. 22 May 1752, bur. 23 May 1752 in Veckersviller (Veckersviller registry)
Jean Adam, d. 11 Sep 1698 aged 2, bur. Veckersviller (Schalbach registry). Earliest record in Veckersviller of this family.

Laubacher, Sebastian (I3124)

4023

There is a Hyde Co., North Carolina estate file of 1753 regarding a John Fortescue

Foscue, John (I3336)

4024

There is a James Taylor in Essex Co., Massachusetts probates, d. 1716, however the will names children not known to be the ones appearing in Beverly, Massachusetts town records (16 Apr 2017)

Taylor, James (I2336)

4025

There is a marriage of a Jane Pate to a T M Wilkinson in nearby Lawrence county on 16 Jan 1856

Pate, Martha Jane (I432)

4026

There is a note on the baptism record that seems to indicate her family was living in Epe (see her siblings' births) but were at Osterfeine when she was born, and thus she was baptized at Damme, the nearest parish.

Nieporte, Maria Elizabeth Gertrude (I2789)

4027

There is a Thomas Preston probated in Essex Co., Massachusetts in 1687 and another in 1770. Due to the timing, neither is likely to be this Thomas Preston

Preston, Thomas (I4186)

4028

There is an R F Donaldson buried in Hagerman Cemetery, Chaves Co., New Mexico, that could be her. DoD 19 Jun 1914

Donaldson, Ruby Ann Frances (I0989)

4029

There is disagreement between the sources for her death date. One says 1889, the other says 7 May 1900. We believe the latter date due to a family photograph of the Roland B Hester family that shows her alongside Mary Ann Hester, who was born in 1897.

Jaggers, Margaret Caroline (I154)

4030

There is most likely a child missing for this family, because a Catherine Schirmann, daughter of Stephan and the late Christine Gall was married on 12 Jun 1770, after Marie Catherine Schirmann had died.

Family F1206

4031

There is no death record for her in the Springfield town records

Bliss, Elizabeth (I1222)

4032

There was a brass plaque in the church giving the precise date of death; his will provides "my body to be buryede in the church of the blisside martire seynt laurence of Bovyngton [Blessed Martyr Saint Laurence] be syde the pyctore of seynt Xpofere [Saint Christopher]."

Gowle, Richard (I3743)

4033

There was a Johann Bernard Heinrich Nieporte born 1791 in Malgarten, who married a Maria Catherina Bockhorst in 1820, not the same person. Unable to find a marriage in Malgarten through 1830 for this person. Also, this one is not buried in Malgarten through 1873.

Nieporte, Johann Bernard (I4428)

4034

There was a Mehitable Lumbard born on this date in Barnstable, Massachusetts. However that is not likely to be the same person; there is a marriage record for a Mehitable Miller (probably not her maiden name) marrying a David Lumbard in Springfield in 1741.

Miller, Mehitable (I1314)

4035

There was a skirmish at Fort George later in 1776; Edward apparently died of disease while serving in the Continental Army

Bond, Edward (I2292)

4036

There were numerous men named Joseph Fitz Randolph living in and around Piscataway, New Jersey in the mid- to late 1700s; thus far none can be proven to be this man (11 Apr 2016)

Fitz Randolph, Joseph (I1995)

4037

There were two Maria Gudenraths baptized in Malgarten 1762-1766 and born to the same parents. Her marriage record gives her residence at that time as "Bramsche," which was a Lutheran parish in those days; the few Catholics in Bramsche would have attended mass at Malgarten. Her burial record subtracts almost two years from her age. (24 Jan 2022)

Gudenrath, Maria Anna (I2816)

4038

They are unmarried (living in neighboring houses) in the 1880 census but the 1881 History of Marion and Clinton Counties has them married

Family F444

4039

They do not appear to have been married on 18 Jul 1670, when John York deeds land to Robert Wadleigh

Family F886

4040

They had 7 children. They immigrated from France to Ohio. First lived in Harrison, Carroll Co., and moved to Brown Twp. in 1850.

Laubacher, Louis (I2441)

4041

They received a dispensation due to consanguinity in the third degree, meaning the couple were related as uncle/niece, nephew/aunt, or, most likely, as second cousins (shared great-grandparents).

Family F2118

4042

They required a dispensation to marry as they were consanguinous in the fourth degree.

Family F2070

4043

They were most likely married by late 1842; record not found in Lage-Rieste. (26 Mar 2022)

Family F2080

Thirteen children were born to this couple.

This biography was published in the "Normal Gazette", Carbondale, 1890:
---
WITHIN FOUR HOURS

On Sunday, October 26, in Salem, Ill., occurred, within four hours of each other, the deaths of Mrs. Lucy Hull and Hon. Samuel Hull, aged respectively seventy-six and eighty-four years.

Mr. Hull was a ruling elder in the Salem congregation of the Cumberland Presbyterian church; he had served the county as a public servant for twenty consecutive years, as constable, county recorder, sheriff and county judge; he was then appointed postmaster of Salem, in which position he remained for twenty-seven years.

- 1890, Vol. 3 "Normal Gazette" Carbondale

Hull, Samuel (I1914)

4047

This birth year is the extreme early range given by the 1820 census, however her marriage license does not make note of her age being less than 21 years as would have been required

Nesbitt, Isabel (I1059)

4048

This census incorrectly lists his name as "Rolin"

Hester, Robert McGara (I097)

4049

This census lists his name as "Simeon." The census taker botched many other names in this family as well

Hester, Sterling Richardson (I095)

This census renders the last name "Gagers"
