Biography
- Lydia was born about 1810 and passed away before 1850. We know of four children born to her between 1834 & 1846 - two births found on the IGI and another two when the children married & gave parent's names. Very little else is known about her.
- UP-DATE: Feb. 2014 - Lydia's maiden name has been found mentioned in the death registration of a son. It is said to have been STOOKER. However I am hesitant to change the name without further research as I think it more likely the name was STOOKS/STOOKES. There were Stookes families living in York county at the time [1838c] but no mention of any Stookers. Have hooked her to the Richard Stooks & Nancy Emery family (as they are connected to the Harmans) - but still NO PROOF!
Sources
- Abstract Index to Lands in Whitchurch Twp, - records at Ontario Archives. Lydia's name was recorded with husband Joseph's on a land sale in 1848.
