Thanks Arline, I appreciate your help on this very much. RE the Utah Territory, I was
wondering why Provo was mentioned in the source citation. I'll take a look at that
census now.
FYI, Lucretia W. CHITTEN may be the same person as Lucretia (nee BAYLEY) CHATTIN,
originally from Linn County, IA. I know she died between 1865 and 1870 and that she was
not in IA at the time.
So there's at least a nonzero chance (given the timeline and uniqueness of the name)
that this is the same person.
It's a long shot. But in the event that other family information is listed along with
that death notice, it would look something like this:
Lucretia W. CHITTEN
Spouse: Henry CHITTEN
Children: James, John, Mary
Residence: Marion, Linn County, IA
Thanks once again for your help. If I can return the favor somehow, maybe lookups in the
New Hampshire area (esp. French-Canadian genealogy, many holdings here)? please let me
know.
Also there is an online database of French-Canadian families, ADAMS, MAYFLOWER (mostly
FULLER), CHARLEMAGNE, and other colonial lineages here:

The flash is overdone on the home page. Here's a link directly to the family index:

Take care,
