I haven't seen Beverly Barnett's home page, but Lydia McGlamery was indeed a daughter of "Virginia" John Lincoln.Lydia McGlamery is included in records of his estate published in "The Lincolns in Virginia" by John W. Wayland.Also, Lincoln's will mentions a daughter Lydia; unfortunately, the will does not mention the married names of any of his daughters.Further, I've had some correspondence with Paul H. Verduin, General Secretary of the Abraham Lincoln Institute of the Mid-Atlantic and a recognized authority on President Lincoln's antecedents, and he is convinced that Lydia was a daughter of John Lincoln who married first a Bryan, probably Benjamin, and second Mathias McGlamery.I have some records concerning Lydia and Mathias McGlamery which I would be happy to share.
Does anyone know when and where Lydia died?Mr. Verduin believes it likely that after Mathias died she moved to Gallia County, Ohio with her daughter and son-in-law, Hannah Bryan McDaniel and Henry McDaniel Jr.I haven't yet searched Gallia County for her.
