Oh that poor widow lost her son and husband same year how sad she ends up in Michigan maybe she remarried maybe not? The civil war changed lives

The civil war was a cruel time. While researching distant tree twigs I find stories, passed down, of how much young families lost. But occasionally humanity was not lost and a story of compassion between sides, won that moment in time.  Then they returned to killing each other.

Well fell down a rabbit hole on this one. She didn't remarry, but they had another son, that lived, and she moved to Michigan with him. I suspected that her father was also buried in Sheans, and in my efforts to source that, managed to connect them to other Mansfield profiles on WT and connected to the tree.  I suspect that the remaining graves in Sheans may also be family, but crawling out of the rabbit hole and getting on with life.

I did look for her obit but came up empty. Interesting!
