She was born Abt. 5 - 9 June 1819 and died Feb. 10, 1893 Age 73y 8m 5d. She is buried at the Lentz (Woodland) Cemetery in Decatur County, Iowa. He second husband was George Williams. They were married between 1860 and 1870 and lived in Marion Township, Mercer County, Missouri. From Leon Journal - Reporter DIED - At the home of her son, G. W. Lushbaugh, one mile south of Woodland, February 10th, Mrs. Edith Williams, aged 73 years 8 months and 5 days. She was a member of the A. C.
