She was never married. She lived in the Orange County Poor Farm for the last few years of her life.
The Springs Valley Herald (June 28, 1934) reported "Lydia A. Love, daughter of William and Susan Shively Love was born Dec. 2, 1863 and departed this life June 14, 1934 at the age of 70 years, 6 months and 12 days. Suffering a severe attack of spotted fever when a mere child, she was left a cripple, but during her life she was always cheerful, lending a helping hand wherever she could. She joined the M. E. Church at Ames Chapel under the pastorage of Bro. Jno. Allen when 18 years of age, living in that faith and attending services when she could. Aunt Lydia, as she was generally called, was a great lover of little children and will be missed by a great many whom knew her. Lydia is survived by five brothers and three sisters, namely: Thomas Love, West Baden, Ind.; Fannie C. Rose, of West Baden, Ind.; Sallie Elrod, Decator, Ill.; Herschel Love, Jefferson, Ind.; Harry Love, Abydell, Ind.; Annise Alexander, Decator, Ill.; Lawrence Love, Abydell, Ind.; and Burle Love, West Baden, Ind., with nephews and nieces who will sadly miss her going. All was done that could be done to prolong her time, but as the morning advanced up until 11:30 Thursday, June 14 she told those around her she was going and the life went out to meet with her Master and loved ones gone on before."
