I am still trying to verify this information.My Willam M. Darling was born in Pennsylvania according to census records.The Lydia he was married to died in Kansas in 1879 according to the 1880 Mortality Schedule for Kansas.She is also buried there in Rice County.They had five children born between 1862 and 1877: William A., John Frank, Ellen J., Mary A. and Emma, according to census records.
It just does not make sense that she would have married someone else (William A. Jones) in IL in 1873...but anything is possible.Is there verified sources for this information?Maybe this Lydia Rickey is attached to the wrong William Darling?
I appreciate any clarification or verification anyone can provide.
