Notes

Note: NI121 At the age of 15, Mary moved with her parents to Dalton, OH. After she and Samuel were married, they moved to State Road, East Union Township, Wayne County, Ohio purchasing a farm there in addition to a shop, living there for a period of thirty-four years, after which, wishing to retire from active business, they removed to their late residence, South Main Street, Orrville, in the spring of 1883. Their period of married life passing 58 years.
Early in life it had been said of her, "Mary hath chosen that good part which shall not be taken away from her". And she frequently referred to that experience with much tenderness in her declining years, remaining true to her Master and faithful to her church.
Mother Lightfoot was of a modest retiring disposition, being entirely devoted to her family and the comfort of those about her. She considered no self sacrifice too great for others, patient and submissive in all her afflictions to the last.

Citing this Record
"Ohio, County Marriages, 1789-2013," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XZDV-DLT : 26 August 2019), Samuel Lightfoot and Mary Mitchel, 25 Nov 1841; citing Marriage, Wayne, Ohio, United States, 54, Franklin County Genealogical & Historical Society, Columbus; FHL microfilm.

Pertaining to a photograph entitled "Sam Lightfoot's Children" from the Ruhama Esther Burnett estate, Photo courtesy of Phyllis Storey-Harrison:
The photo was part of many letters and photos left in the Mulvane, Kansas area in the estates of Daniel Lightfoot and his children to include the estate of Ruhama Esther Burnett. The photo is unmarked other than the statement "Sam Lightfoot's children". I strongly suspect that this name Samuel marked on the photo would have been Daniel's brother who remained in Wayne County, Ohio when Daniel and Susannah left in about 1856 eventually bound for Iowa and then Kansas.
Because Samuel's third-born son, Smith, died in 1856, this photo must be of Samuel's remaining sons, "Samuel Jr, Francis, & Warren (youngest boy to oldest), and probably his two youngest daughters, Viola & Ella (youngest girl to the oldest). It's not known where the next oldest daughter, Harriet, would have been as she was born in 1851 and did not marry until 1874.
If this photo were taken after her marriage date in 1874, that would mean the boys should be much older. That should therefore date the photo to about 1865-1870 in Wayne County, Ohio.
