I found 2 obituaries today at the Crawford County Historical Society that may be of interest to you: 1. Mrs. Margaret Norton of Meadville, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Walter Marsh, October 5, 1901, aged 59 years. Interred at Kiser Hill Cemetery. - Crawford Journal October 10, 1901, page 8, column 4 2. Edward Norton, formerly of Crawford County, died March 3, 1899, at Trunkeyville, Venango County, aged 70 years. - Crawford Journal March 23, 1899, page 8, column 5 I found one marriage record for a Norton and Kightlinger, not the one you mentioned, but perhaps a connection somehow? Seth Norton married Miss Ivy Kightlinger March 1891, in South Troy by Rev. O.C. Sherman. - Crawford Journal Mach 19, 1891, page 8, column 6 Since the one obit mentioned Kiser Hill Cemetery (East Mead Township), I copied down all the Nortons and Kightlingers buried there: Kightlinger, Abraham - born 8/25/?, died 9/28/1899 Nancy Ann (w) - born 8/?/?, died 10/25/1889 Charlotte (dtr) born 7/13/1849, died 8/29/1877 John N. born 5/13/1852, died 10/4/1877 Kightlinger, Alex born 1849, died 7/12/1930 Dora (w) born 5/19/1850, died 12/31/1898 Dick (son) born 9/17/1889, died 10/6/1889 Birdie born 12/6/1892, died 1/3/1893 Kightlinger, Andrew born 1823, died 6/17/1893 Hannah (w) born 1825, died 3/4/1903 Malvina (dtr) died ?/30/1852 Charles (son) died 8/4/1854 Alice (dtr) died 12/24/1872 Nettie (dtr) died 4/12/1884 Infant Son died 3/12/1883 Kightlinger, E.
