Lucina, widow of Samuel Barstow, “still survives [in 1853], at the age of 88; her descendants being so numerous, that she is able to say, ‘arise daughter, and go to thy daughter, for thy daughter’s daughter hath a daughter.’ She is bright, and intelligent, and takes the charge of her own household, and of her invalid son, doing much of the labor herself, and is a highly worthy and respectable lady. She was married at the early age of 16. Her husband was chosen Deacon of the Church, in Columbia, in 1802, and his religious character is ably set forth in the interesting Tract, No. 112, pub. by the Am. Tr. Ass'n.
