*At this time little is known about Zidera. She was married to David Benton Lane with at least one son. It appears she was a second wife as he was much older than her. She died April 1888 in the Leslie area and is buried in Woodlawn Cemetery, Leslie, Michigan
** Daniel did live to adulthood. His time and place of death is unknown. All that has been found about Daniel is an article where he borrowed Paul's horse and buggy to go to Mason to see a doctor.
