Lillian Edith Everett was born 13 Apr 1873 to William Edward Everett b.1842 d. 1920 and Louise Alice Fitch b. 1853 d. 1936. She is first counted as a small child in the 1850 Census living with her parents and siblings. Her father William is 34 and a physician having immigrated with his family from England, her mother Alice is 26 and a native of Kentucky. Her brothers are John F. age 8 and Lemuel S. age 1. William Wilson age 19 is also living in the home.
In 1891 on the 4th of July she is united in marriage to Homer L. Girt, the half-brother of Cora Alice(various name spelling of maiden name). She is counted with her two children living with her parents, Lillian is age 26, Flora A. age 8 and Charles age 6. Her husband Homer is living with his parents. I do not know the circumstances for the separate living arrangements
In 1910 The family is living together Homer is age 38, Lillian is age 36, Flora age 18, Charles age 16, Dora age 4, Everett age 2. Henrietta Girt, Homer's mother is living with the family.
This is the last census that Lillian is counted on. A picture of her cleaned monument has already been posted to the blog. She was only 38 years old when she passed in 1912
Her monument is made of Limestone and is a rolled cylinder on it side. The inscription is wearing, and is very hard to read.
