m Thomas Bagley on 5 Jun 1817 at Windsor, VT
Children (8):
- Nancy Anne Bagley (24 Feb 1818-) m James Madison Bridge
- Emily Sophia Bagley (10 Jul 1819-2 Oct 1854) m Bezaleel Bridge
- Louise/Lois M Bagley (7 Mar 1823-15 Oct 1863) m Sylvester Bridge
- Edwin Henry Bagley (1831-25 Mar 1907)
- Mary Bagley (-26 Mar 1897) m Billings
- John Parker Bagley (1837-6 Apr 1862) m Mary Ann Furber

Her grandson, Norman Bridge, described her:
A smallish woman with light hair and eyes, she possessed a fine character. She had all the best sentiments and ideas. Unusually fond of children, and always glad to have them about her (even if they were not her own grandchildren, of whom she had a swarm), she understood girls and drew them to her for sympathy and strength. And for many of the boys she had the rarest powers of attraction and influence. She could make a small boy ashamed of any mean conduct or sentiment, and give him a sense of moral principle as a guide, keeping all the time her complete hold on him. It was a rare power, and she seemed wholly unconscious of having it.
