Lydia "was born on the 1st of April, 1796. After the death of Mr. Fisk she was a second time married, in 1841, to Deacon William Smith, of Jackson County, Mich., who died in 1844.
In 1846 she became the wife of Rev. Robert Powell, with whom she lived for almost thirty years, and survived him four years, making her home with her son, Horace A. Fisk, whose family made her declining years quiet and peaceful. She was laid to rest at the ripe age of eighty-three years (1 month shy). Mrs. Fisk became the mother of one child after her arrival in Clinton, Benjamin W., who died young in 1840. The eldest son, Cyrus B., died in 1846, three years after his marriage; his wife and child had died before.
