Description	:	Lettie was born October 29th in Ohio. I know her father's name was Stacton Briggs but I don't have a name for her mother yet.I know nothing else of her until about 1838 when she married John Herbert in Ohio. Their first son, John Briggs, was born in Ohio about 1839. The 1840 Census has the family living in Trumbell County, Ohio. By the 1850 Census, they are in the same place and have added three more children: Stockton (Stacton) C in 1841, Francis E in 1843 and William Solon in 1848. A daughter, Josephine, died in infancy.

I know her father's name was Stacton Briggs but I don't have a name for her mother yet.I know nothing else of her until about 1838 when she married John Herbert in Ohio. Their first son, John Briggs, was born in Ohio about 1839. The 1840 Census has the family living in Trumbell County, Ohio. By the 1850 Census, they are in the same place and have added three more children: Stockton (Stacton) C in 1841, Francis E in 1843 and William Solon in 1848. A daughter, Josephine, died in infancy. John is listed as a farmer with a real estate value of $1000.00.The 1856 Census is unfortunately not very readable. But it states they had 30 acres. And the last of their children had been born: Virginia in 1851 and Clayton Dick (my greatgrandfather). The Census states he was 3 months old but I'm fairly certain he was born in 1852 and was 3 years old! By the 1860 Census, they had moved to Jefferson, Wayne County, Iowa. The farm was valued at $6340.00 and her husband had personal assets of $1882.00. For some reason, although they were on the same farm in 1870, John had given a huge portion of its value to Lettie. His was $2000.00 and hers was $5980.00. He also had personal assets of $1000.00 while hers were $400.00. John died in 1875. Lettie moved to Corydon, Wayne County, Iowa where I find her on the 1880 Census running a boarding house although there's only one boarder. She died July 23rd, 1890 and is buried here beside her husband. I have not yet found where Josephine is buried. There is a memorial marker here for Stockton and Clayton Dick but they are buried elsewhere. The rest of the family is all buried here.
