Individual Details

Lavisa Russell

(4 Jul 1823 - 15 Dec 1853)



FamilyTree on Ancestry had 4 July 1824 as the birth of Lavisa - her mother had died in January of 1824. However, I found a book on Google Books, The Howlands Heirs, by William Morrell Emery, 1919, which contained notes on the Russell family and had a birth date of July 4, 1823, which I suspect is correct. Lavisa's father's middle name was Howland.
