I believe that the name that you are looking for is Lydia Ferrin, (Ferin, Ferren.) There
is another child in this family who has escaped the family historians, Jane Chamberlain (
from whom I descend. (She is my great-great great grandmother), born 19 August 1829 in Old
Chelsea Quebec and and married David Bradley. I have a picture of them. Jane's death
certificate indcated that Lydia Ferin was born in Canada, and that her father Nathaniel
was born in the US.
Nathaniel Sr. is apparently recorded as the second person to be buried in the Old Chelsea
cemetery in 1801 although no marker exists, which would suggest that he did make it to
Canada. I have had no luck finding Lydia's history, although I dd find a Lydia born in
Maine in the right time period and there seemed to be family links to Vermont. Cluses bt
no way to connect the dots.
Perhaps you have solved ths query since 2000.A long time has passed.
