Individual Details
Susan Amanda "Manda" Biswell
(Nov 1838 - Aft 1900)
In the 1900 Census Manda stated she had 6 children, 5 living. It would seem to me there are too many children subscribed to this family. Louisan is the deceased child. I have seen in other databases, but without any census evidence, another daughter is Lavinia and many omit Louisan - Is perhaps Lavinia the same child as Louisan? Since the censuses and the grave of Louisan indicate a total of 7 children, perhaps one of the older children had died by 1900 and she didn't really count the infant who had died so many years before.
Found in the 1900 Crawford Co Census, age 61, widowed, living with Minnie and Lee.
Her stone in Woods Cemetery has no dates.
