Biography

She married Sgt. Samuel Jerome in Wallingford, New Haven, CT and had 14 children

Samuel moved the family to Stockbridge, MA between 1756-1764 and on to Pompey Hill, Onondaga, NY in 1794 - they had children born in Wallingford, CT & Stockbridge, MA

I am adding Lucy as Samuel's wife in order to link her to the sons John and Aaron who are already in WikiTree. I have no information on her birth or death dates. Can anyone supply this information? I would also be grateful if someone else could take over management of this profile. Elizabeth Harris
