Catherine married William C Ford about 1843. They had 7 children according to the 1900 Manhattan, NY federal census and only four were still living in 1900. Their children were; Sarah Elizabeth, Catherine (Katy), William, Emma, Nancy J., Mary Annette Dow, and Florence Park Ford. Florence died at age 5 from Diphtheria, and Nancy died at age 3 from inflammation of the bowels. They were also buried in Woodlawn.
While in Boston, Catherine and her sister Elizabeth Manson's families lived on Saratoga St. for many years. She removed to Brooklyn, NY sometime after the death of her husband in 1874 to live with her daughter Sarah Wolford and her family. Later, she lived with another daughter, Emma Kelly, in Manhattan, NY where she died in 1904 at age 81y 8m 29d. I used this date to calculate her birthdate.
Thanks to the Woodland Cemetery office for their assistance in obtaining confirmation of the burial location of Catherine, her date of death and age. The death location and date were also confirmed in the New York, New York, Death Index, 1862-1948 on Ancestry.com.
