Mrs. Lydia Freeman, wife of Seneca Freeman, Esq., died at her home in Emporium, about 3 o'clock p.m. on Friday, December 24, 1886, in the 86th year of her age. She was the daughter of the late David Crow, one of the old residents of this place. Mr. Crow moved from Massachusetts to Shippen township, Cameron county (formerly of McKean county) in 1814. He settled on the property at the mouth of Sinnamahoning Portage, now owned by Seneca Freeman, the husband of he deceased. Lydia was married to Mr. Freeman on the 10th of August, 1818. She was the mother of 11 children 8 of whom are still
living. Her husband still lives at the age of 93 but for years past he has been confined to the house and lately has become insensible to anything going on around him. About the year 1883 Mr. Crow purchased the property at the lower end of this borough and moved over here, his son-in-law taking the property at the mouth of Portage upon which he has ever since resided. Mrs. Freeman was a devoted mother and a dear friend and her loss, even at her advance age will be deeply deplored by a large circle of relatives and friends.
