Antoinette was a daughter of Col. Harrison by his first marriage. She should be linked to # 82203438 as her correct mother. She was not a daughter of 2nd wife Mary Eunice Perrin, who Col. Harrison didn't marry until 10 May 1861.
Also,although her obit says she was "about 50 years old", she was at least 52, important because her mother died in 1857, so Antoinette was not born in 1859. The printed obit says she married in 1874, so she would have been 17 at marriage. The transcribed obit says married in 1871, probably a typo, (and just one reason I disagree with the FAG policy that we have to transcribe obits, but that's another whole can of worms!)
