They resided on a farm near Preston where she died August 6th, 1844, leaving a family of five children, namely: Magdalena, John, Harriet, Abraham, and William who disappeared about thirty years ago, since then nothing has been heard of him. The others were all married and resided in different parts of the country, but at present there is not one living any more." Eby, Ezra E. (1895).
