Notes:
 Some records say he died in Alexandria, but more likely Theresa.
 Almedia b. C.4 May 1833, d. 11 May 1848, Old Theresa
	Almedia (or Almeda) died of "cold stage of fever" (Theresa vital records)
 John C. 1835-1864, m. Angeline Herrick, b. 1843
 Egbert C.1837, d. 3 Nov 1862 (25y9m9d... b. C.25 Jan 1837)
	wife's name from pension record is Clarissa. This is Clarissa Cook.
	Egbert is living with the Cooks as a farm hand in 1860.
 Henry C.1839, d. 30 Mar 1864 (25y3m7d... b. C.23 Dec 1838)
	wife's name from pension record is Lodema
 Nancy C.1842 m. W.L.Deavendorf before 1870
		Willard L. Deavendorf/Diefendorf is the brother of Lyman's
		second wife Mathilda.  Their parents were Abram & Elvira
		Diefendorf (of Stark, Herkimer Co.).  Elvira later married
		Stephen Reynolds.
 Laurette C.1844-5
 Infant, died 19 Feb 1847
 Amanda C.1855

 in 1870, grandsons Egbert & Fredy (Frederich) ages 7 & 6
 in 1880, they are 18 and 16.
 in 1880, mother of second wife, Elvira Reynolds is living with them.
 Also buried in Old Threresa are:
	Laura J. Stearns, died 15 Nov 1861, age 20y2m25d
		this could be Laurette, though the age or date are off. Laurette
		does not appear to be in the census in 1870.  If the age is right
		the year could have been 1864.  Sometimes a 4 looks like a 1 on
		the old stones.  If it was 1864 it was just 2 weeks before
		Henry died.  He died in Theresa of disease, so it is possible
 		they both died of some fever or other.  John also died in 1864.
	Sally Stearns, daugther of Curtis & Mary, died 26 May 1847, 5y2m15d
		Sally died of Scarlet Fever (Theresa Vital Records)
   	This Curtis is Lyman's brother, who moved to Ohio after Sally died.
