I am looking for information on the family of Catherine Widner, born 13Oct1818 in Clairborne County, TN. She married 2Apr1837 to Henry N CANTER. They had 5 children; Lewis, Levi, Henry Clay, George Washington, and Elizabeth Jane. Henry N went to fight in the Mexican War with Company K of the 3rd Regiment of KY and left Catherine and the 5 children.
1850 census Knox Co, KY, page 383
Catharine 31 TN
Lewis 11 TN
Levi 10 TN
Henry C 8 KY
George W 5 KY
Elizabeth 2 KY
In 1860, she and the children are in Poplar Grove, Carroll Co, IN. Did she follow her parents? or did she perhaps go to Henry's folks in IN?
Any information or directions to look would be greatly appreciated. Where were she and Henry married? She and the first two children were born in TN.
