On 1850-02-28 she bought from Michael Welker for $100 a 20-acre plot of land in Stark Co OH:
So much of the W 1/2 of SW 1/4 of Section 8, Township 17 Range 7 as lies within the boundaries following:
beginning at the NE corner of half quarter, thence W 40 rods to the E line of lands assigned to Oce
Welker widow of Henry Welker deceased for dower in 1837, thence S 80 rods to Halter's land, thence
