Before Greg Nelson finds out that I made a BIG mistake in his family tree(after all he gets upset with my mother when hse is off by a day or two on family history) : here is the correction
it was not Lydia Thurston as the the correct Lydia, I was going from information who was a Thurston and swore that there were Holmes children in her family plot
Maternal Great- Great - Grandmother: Lydia J. (or M. is correct ) Johnson- Holmes
D.O.B 1835 abt DOD.D. 1911? Lydia is listed as a widow in the 1900 census, Clark must have died between 1885 and 1900 Lydia is a Johnson her father is David P. Johnson of New York, Mother is Elizabeth
Lydia married Clark on August 17th 1862
