Caroline Lucas: famology

Generation: 1

Caroline Lucas was born in 1853 (daughter of Robert W. Lucas and Sarah Sims); died in 1929.

Notes:

On abt 18 Jul 1891, John Franklin Lucas's wife Frances died in childbirth with Louella Lenora "Nora" (according the "Chapter's, Ann Heard's family history).
It's likely that Caroline Lucas helped raise her brother's 7 children, to the point that Nora's children considered her their grandmother, apparent when James M. Flack listed Caroline as Nora's mother on her 1975 death certificate. Amazingly, Caroline had 10 children of her own with William H. Mangum. There's no evidence that John Lucas re-married.

Caroline married William Henry Mangum in 1873. William (son of Henry Lee Mangum and Nancy Ann May) was born on 18 Apr 1854; died on 2 Sep 1925 in Simpson County MS. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
