• Notes

  Charlotte Cowles was previously married to a Richard Cowles. It's not known what her maiden name was. Charlotte and Thomas Thornton had twins together, but after Thomas died Charlotte abandoned the twins with another relative from her family, sold her land, and moved to Michigan. It's not known why. There is only one possible match for this Charlotte in the 1880 US Census or in the 1881 Canadian Census, so the presentation of this Charlotte is fairly likely, but not certain. Her birth name would have been Donner, daughter of Samuel and Charlotte Donner of CT. She may have had other relatives in Michigan.
