A collage of portraits of the 11 children of Elijah and Lydia (Crawford) Ranney is printed in Adams' Middletown Upper Houses...

Lydia died on 10 April 1852.[18] Her gravestone matches the date in the town vital records, but a clerk mistook April for August when indexing the cemetery's stones, resulting in an erroneous index card in the State Archives.[19]
