• Notes

  According to nephews and nieces of Electa in Adney's book, she was tall, fair, had blue eyes and was "marvelous". She was an animated person. "When she wasn't talking, she was laughing, and always on the go." She and her family didn't runy schedule. They might not eat dinner till 11:00 p.m. You could find her and her children still in bed at noon. They lived a free lifestyle. They pictured her running with two pails of water jumping over the "low bars with a whoop like an Indian." According to Adney's relatives she died on Aug. 30, 1868, but our reading of her cemetery stone says she died on Aug. 30, 1866. The stone also says that she was 57 yrs, 7 mo, and 19 days old at the time of her death and this matches with her 1868 birth date intstead. (CL-376)
