but
Louisa on records as an adult.
In the census of

I first discovered Louisa 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.
