Biography

Lucinda and Louisa Crisp were twins. Lucinda was the first to marry Thomas B. Tweedy, in Owen County, on 18 April 1856, when she was 14 years old. Louisa was the second to marry Thomas B. Tweedy, on 9 June 1858, in Vermillion County, when she was 16 years old.

I cannot find Thomas B. Tweedy or his family in the 1860 Indiana Census. I am assuming that Lucinda Crisp Tweedy had died by the time her twin married Thomas.

Thomas possibly died by 1895.

Louisa married Andrew J. Sickler 31 Jul 1859 in Edgar County, Illinois.^[1]

In 1860 Louisa was married to Andrew Sickler and she was age 17. They were living in Edgar County, Illinois. Both were born in Indiana.^[2]

Louisa was married to Andrew Sickler and living in 1870 in Edgar County, Illinois.^[3]

Louisa Crisp Tweedy Sickler married Daniel M. Creal in Vigo County 12 Dec 1895. Her surname at the time is recorded as Crisp, but no first name. Parents are John Crisp and Elizabeth Kirk; this was her second marriage.
