Message Board Post:
This is a correction to message I sent earlier re: Nathan Challis' wife. After some
more research, I think the entry on Family Search naming Caroline McArthur is wrong. I now
think it is Caroline JACKSON, b.6 May 1825 and d.21 Sept. 1908. The record I found shows
Florilla as a daughter, which matches other data. Some additional info is included: Nathan
died 12 May 1901. Marriage is also listed as about 1847, which matches what you have. This
Caroline's birthdate makes her marriage and the births of the children more
reasonable. BTW, I am Laura's dad's first cousin...
