I am trying to find out what happened to Nancy Studebaker LUCAS born 22 Jan
1825 in Adams Co., Pa. Married John Lucas 11 April 1850. I believe she
divorced John Lucas and returned to South Bend, IN around 1855 along with
three children, Alice, Emma and Sylvester( he eventually worked at the
Studebaker Plant). Persistent family rumor is that Nancy had a nervous
breakdown and was 'hidden away'. I do not have access to the 1860 or 1870
census. Could someone check to see if she was still in South Bend at that
time? I know she died 26 Sept. 1872. Any help greatly appreciated!
