Laura was the daughter of Frederick and Elizabeth "Betsey" (Huntington) Wolcott. Her great grandfather (Roger Wolcott) was the first governor of Connecticut; her grandfather (Oliver Wolcott) was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence; her uncle (Oliver Wolcott, Jr.) was Secretary of the Treasury under George Washington. She married Robert Gosman Rankin on March 30, 1831 at Litchfield, Connecticut.
To date, I've been unable to determine where Robert and Laura are buried. I assume Newburgh or Manhattan.
