Died from heart problems a few months after her 11th child was born. Her death date is from Nathaniel Blythe's Application for Pension due to Civil War Service.
First wife of Nathaniel Blythe. She was the mother of 11 children. I've heard it told from several family members that she was a strong woman and stood up to her husband at times. Once she even cut one of his fingers off with a butcher knife when he went after two of their boys with a bullwhip.
