General Notes
- Her name is also reported to be Caroline S., which is probably correct. Caroline S. is shown on her tombstone. New England records show her date of birth to be September 22, 1826, in New Hampshire, so the Census place of birth must be a mistake... and she was born before the family came to Illinois. (Caroline was the 2nd great-grandaunt of Dorothy Ann Fries Schneider.) Her brother William was living with the Holcombs, and both William and his son, Levi, were living in the Holcomb household in 1870. (The child's mother had left them.) Also, by then her mother, Parnell was there - age 64.
