  • Notes 
    • Kemp, Andrew Louis - Foster, Mrs Martha - Nov 4 1840 (note: transcription listed her as "Mrs" but I am not sure she had been previously married. Many times the transcriptions of the early marriages have had Miss and Mrs wrong because of the handwritting)

      In 1880, living with daughter Mary Jane May family, box checked is widow/divorced. Her husband is living on Isaac Steele farm, working, listed as single.
