Well - it is merely speculatively possible. I don't know. What I do know is that her family lived nextdoor at some point before 1880 up and through 1880 to George Washington RUBLE who married a Paulina CRAWFORD, and there appears to be *no* Paulina CRAWFORD at all listed in Botetourt - which is where Paulina is buried - at the Oriskany Cemetery, with the dates of 1844-1924 apparently inscribed on her stone (I have not seen that or a photograph of the stone. I do know that a 4 can look awfully like a 9 sometimes, and vice-versa). Vince Summers P.S. If you are familiar with this Lucy, please tell me more about her and her husband, etc. Thanks to the kind person who looked up both of these census entries...
