Research Notes

After the 1798 death of her husband Rufus, by May 1799, the Smithfield Probate Court set off a third of Rufus's real estate to her. 1800 Census shows Lucy living in Smithfield with 2 daughters (it is assumed Betsey died prior to 1800 as only 2 younger females are shown on the census). She then likely sold her estate in preparation to move to Palmyra, NY around 1804 to join the older sons who had already migrated beginning around 1799. By 1808 and at age 16 her daughter Lucy married Martin Harris in Palmyra. Her daughter Polly married in 1812.
