Their children were Everard and Carrie Anna.

Her husband, William, died in 1869 in Biddeford, ME. In 1870 she was living in Dover, NH with her married sister. She had her daughter Carrie with her but son Everard was not there. He was possibly living with a relative.

"About 1871 in Dover, NH she married Lewis W. Meserve, son of Frost Meserve and Priscilla Nute. A marriage record can't be found because Dover City Hall burnt down many times. But in 1871 Lewis was living at
