| Mary Lincoln married Archie Morley after his first wife, Anna Severn died. |
| Roland LaPan and VadaBelle Morley LaPan Daughter of Archie Morley and Anna Severn Grandaughter of Louisa and James. |
| I first discovered Louisa Levelette on the marriage certificate for Mary Lincoln and Archie Morley. I was looking for information on the death of Aldora Sylvester, my great-grandmother and Mary's mother. While looking through records in Standish, Michigan I came across my grandmother's marriage application. It was somewhat of a shock to discover that Archie's mother was Louisa Levelette. His father was James Morley, which I already knew. Archie Morley's death certificate names James Morley and Louisa Levelette as parents. |

| Paul LaViolet and Susan Young had a daughter named Mary. She married Clinton Sylvester, the son of Leonard Sylvester and Cynthia Tortellet. Leonard was the son of Joab Sylvester and Electa Reid. |
| My Severn family data.is not on-line. |
| Clinton and Mary were parents of Aldora Sylvester. Aldora married Herbert Lincoln, son of Alexander Lincoln and Lavina McCarty. Herb and Aldora had a daughter Mary Lavina Lincoln, my grandmother. |

| After doing research on Clinton's wife Mary LaViolet and her family, we had trouble locating one of the older daughters. We thought she was Louisa. Finding that she was my grandfather Archie Morley's mother, we put together the data that we had on him and learned who she was. Louisa Levelette and Mary Laviolet were sisters. |
