Biography

She is sometimes seen in family files as the daughter of John Blosser and Catherine Beery, but the father's probate file[1] and particular family biographical sketches[2] suggest this Lydia was the daughter of George and Rebecca (Garrison) Blosser. (Thus, the granddaughter of John and Catherine.) Can you add any information on Lydia Blosser? Please help grow her WikiTree profile. Everything you see here is a collaborative work-in-progress.

I have Lydia (b1820) as daughter of George and Rebecca (born 85 years after John & Catherine). She married William Young (b1814)
Hi Kristina,

Have read the probate record again, and find I can reason "Young" out of the writing. You may want to look also. 1992421&wc9G91-4WP:266277801,266456001 Click Here.

Hi Kristina,

Thank you again!

Do you know if John and Catherine had a daughter Lydia m. William Young?

According to probate records of George Blosser (married Rebecca), they had a daughter Lydia, she was then "intermarried with William Goring"; they lived at Fairfield County, Ohio in 1852. [Hocking County (Ohio) probate, case 325]

John (b.1734) and Catharine's children were born from 1774-1778 in Pennsylvania.

George & Rebecca's 9 children were born from 1804-1825 in Ohio. (I thought I made this comment when I corrected them)

Parents were changed from John and Catherine to George and Rebecca.

Should we address this in the narrative with a section about conflicted origins? Might there be some supporting historical records and reasoning?
