Nancy Bright (1813-1900) VA-->Cincinnati, OH-->St Louis, MO

Classification: Query
Am looking for information on Nancy Bright who was born in about 1813 in Wheeling, Ohio Co, Virginia (now West Virginia). She is my gggggrandmother. She married Daniel Merrill around 1830 and they lived in Cincinnati, Ohio in the 1830's. They ran a boarding house there. They moved to St Louis, Missouri in the late 1830's, where they also ran a boarding house. Daniel died around 1850, but Nancy continued to run the boarding house into the 1860's. Nancy died on September 24, 1900 in St Louis.

At first I thought she might be Curtis Bright's daughter, but from what I'm reading on message boards, now I don't think so. All the later census records I have for her say that both of her parents were born in Ireland.

Any help would be appreciated!
