Message Board Post:
Here is the email I received from a cousin, who lives in IN.
"Got your e-mail about Mercy Kidder tombstone. I'm not sure who may have put it
there, but some years ago we had a Brown reunion every year and it finally dwindled out
but there was some money left in the treasury and it was suggested it be used for a stone.
The man who was going to see about it has passed away since and I never did go and check
on it to see if it got done. His name was Lester O. Brown."
I believe I verified that this was done and it reads Mercy A. Kidder, mother of Hannah. A
relative of Lester's now is in charge of the cemetery.
I believe Hannah's mother was Samantha C. Caulkns Kidder but I cannot prove it. I
only have circumstantial information.
