L. Ring and A. J. Slusher, who married 7 Aug 1865 in Fremont County, IA? I believe this couple to be Lydia Lavina (or Lavina Lydia) Ring, aka as Irene Ring, and Andrew J. (Jackson?) Slusher, who are listed in the 1870 Census in Franklin Township of Fremont County. Lavina died in 1871, a widow, according to a probate document that lists her only heir as Sarah Olive White. The family story is that Lavina died giving birth to Sarah Olive, and Sarah was adopted by a Fremont County doctor. The Slushers had a son William, age 4 in the 1870 census, but if this is the family, he did not survive past 21 April 1923, when the probate was filed.
