Reported age at time of death was 30 years, so evidently born about 1827 (she is aged 22 years on the 1850 census). Jane Ann GIDDINGS married 02 JUN 1846 in Muscogee County, Georgia, to Josiah PRANGLIN. She is evidently the daughter of unknown & Winifred Ann (PRINCE) GIDDINGS. Winifred married second on 04 OCT 1849 in Muscogee County, Georgia, to Andrew P. JONES. In the household of Andrew & Winifred on the 1850 census of Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia, is Clara PRANGLIN, aged 5 years, evidently one of the 4 small children who survived Jane (GIDDINGS) PRANGLIN.

Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports, p. 213, shows: Mrs. Jonah [sic] PRINGLE [sic] died of pneumonia and was buried 20 OCT 1857 (age not reported; from "October 1, 1857 to January 1, 1858, Sexton's Report," dated 07 JAN 1858; the sexton was Thomas NIX). John H. Martin's "The Making of a Modern City: Columbus, Georgia, 1827-65," Volume II (1875), p.101 (from the version of the Sexton's report published in the newspaper), reports Mrs. Josiah PRANGLE [sic]. [Possibly died of complications from childbirth, as an infant was buried SEP 1858, aged 11 months.]

Buster Wright's "Burials and Deaths Reported in the Columbus (Georgia) Enquirer [Newspaper], 1832-1872" (1984), p. 379, shows: Jane PRANGLIN, aged 30 years, died in Columbus 10 days following the death of her late husband, Josiah PRANGLIN; four small children survive (reported 20 OCT 1857, 27 OCT 1857 & 12 JAN 1858).

The 1850 census of Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia, shows: Jonah [or Josiah] PRINGLE (aged 27 years, born in England, a planter), with Jane A. PRINGLE (22, SC), Anne E. PRINGLE (2, GA), and William GIDDENS (19, GA, a bricklayer - evidently Jane Ann's brother).

In 1860, daughter Clara (age 5) is in the household of Jane's mother Winifred Ann (PRINCE) JONES and her second husband Andrew. Son Jonn PRANGLIN (10) is in the household of Lester Leander & Eveline (GIDDINGS) COWEDERY - Eveline had been married first to Charles RULE and is evidently Jane's sister. Daughter Elizabeth PRANGLIN (12) is in the household of S. [?] T. (47) & Mrs. (52) AUSTIN.

In 1870, John PRANGLIN (19) is still residing with Lester & Eveline COWDERY.

This grave is probably not identifiably marked. Based on the burial date, this grave would be in the Old Cemetery section, Section 1, or Section 2 (unless it was subsequently reinterred to another part of the cemetery).
