TUCKER in his History of Hartford, Vermont records the following marriage of Justus Savage: Justus, b. Aug. 5, 1803; m. Nov. 15, 1836, Eliza Alger of Strafford, Vt., b. Aug. 5, 1806, (dau. of Aaron and Lusina (Powel) Badger). He d. in Strafford, Vt., April 9, 1888. The error being: Eliza ALGER was not the daughter of Aaron and Lusina (Powel) BADGER, but was the daughter of Aaron and Lusina (Powel) ALGER. TUCKER mistakenly mixed up the name of ALGER with BADGER, and was published accordingly. This confusion is perpetuated on websites which have Lucina Powell marrying Aaron Alger and Aaron Badger; Lucina dying in 1803 and remarrying in 1810; Lucina is given an unsubstantiated middle name of Law. I would like everyone to know that Lucina only married Aaron Alger and lived to be 90 years old. She was the administrator of her one and only husband when he died in 1841, recorded in the VT 1850, 1860 and 1870 living in the household of Justus and Eliza Savage and family; had son Albert Alger who married Harriet Lawrence, who had a daughter Harriet Philena who married Elihu Finney - my great great grandparents. It would be extremely appreciated if any obvious errors are spotted on websites from here to the planet Mars, to have them corrected. It would also be nice to hear from the many cousins out there waiting to be found!!!!! Charles Anderson
