General Notes

 P 185 Lobdell book, portion of a letter written by her son Henry Lockwood Lobdell to the author of the Lobdell book.

        "My mother, Fanny Krum was b. on a farm at Chatham, Four Corner, Columbia Co, NY.  This farm of 100 acres was lost by her father's mismanagement, and the family of half-grown children went to face life in the wilds of Montgomery Co, NY...at Oppenheim, and there is where my parents met."
Lockwood age 23 and Fanny 20 when married.
"In the spring of 1829, they with my uncle, Abel Krum, moved to Ashtabula Co, Ohio.  At first my parents settled in Wayne, where they bought 30 acres of land, moved into what had been  a stable, and with not much but their hands began the struggle for a home and competence."
