Lanah and one of her daughters call on FMS in 18310225FMS_WHS1. Lanah Nelson was from Lansingburg, N. Y. She married Abijah Fitch and they later moved to Auburn, NY. They had twelve children, but only eleven lived to adulthood. Her maiden name is alternately given as Nelson and Wilson. Nelson appears to be the correct one as her tombstone says Lanah N. Fitch and one of her sons was named Nelson.
