Her death certificate records Lucinda Crose, age 78 years 1 month 13 days, born 1 April 1836 in Morgan Co., Ky, died 14 May 1914 in Spencer precinct, Montgomery Co., Kentucky, married, father Simon Link, born in Pennsylvania, mother’s maiden name unknown, cause of death general debility, informant Cris Crose, Jeffersonville, Ky.
The reported birthdate is inconsistent with census records, which listed her as age 10 in 1850 and age 20 in 1860.

(This census is very inconsistent with other records
3, so I am not trusting the birthdates or the number of children count.) Although Emma appears as single, she is really divorced.
