Notes
Lived 85 years 7 months 28 days. Died at home of her daughter Sarah Winters, 1.5 mi NE of Mazie, Oklahoma. Married October 5, 1852 at Cynthiana, Posey County, Indiana by Elder Louis Duncan. Witnesses were Elijah and Margaret M. Turner, (bride's parents), and by Nelson Martin. (Nelson Martin was probably father or brother of James Martin). Cynthia was a bit of a firebrand! There are a couple of good pictures of her and in the second picture you can see a little Hatchet pin at her neck. It is photographed below. It is her "Carrie A. Nation" Temperance pin. It is gold, with mother-of-pearl blade, and set with a small ruby, which she was entitled to wear for recruiting five other members to chop up saloons! I believe cousin Margaret Lauterbach Cox has the pin.
