Regarding her name:
You can leave it as "Lucenda" but just for the record, in the 1860, 1870, 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930 censuses, the death index, her death certificate, the 1934 and 1938 city directories, and on the Kentucky Marriage record her name is listed as Lucinda. The obituary and the stone are typos. There should be no doubt that Lucinda was her name.
