Lucinda "Lucy" (Morris) Hatfield

["David Winter" <David_Winter_uid1419@yahoogroups.inv_ alid>]

Mildred Amelia Morris, born 15 Apr 1880, m/1 Burton Wilson Merriam on 3 Jun
1897 - Divorce; m/2 James Hardy Carey on 24 Apr 1909 - Divorce; m/3 Percy
Almona Ayer on 19 Nov 1915.

To my way of thinking, in order for Harden/James Hardy Carey to be the
son-in-law of Lucinda "Lucy" (Morris) Hatfield on her death record, Mildred
Amelia Morris had to be the illegitimate d/o Lucinda "Lucy Morris and raised
as a daughter by her maternal grandparents, Nathaniel Morris and Mary Eunice
Knowlton. Same theory for Alice Mary Morris who m/1 William Henry Church.

In 1891, Mary Eunice at age 63 is a bit old to have two daughters aged 10
and 7 after having no other children since 1852.

Comparing the various censuses on a time line seems to support this theory.

Also, Nathaniel is alive and well on the 1891 Census and didn't die in 1886.
