Lorain Newcomb Baker death 1883?
Lorain NEWCOMB was born 14 Feb 1814, Shoreham, VT, the daughter of Luther NEWCOMB, Jr. (Newcomb Genealogy #363) and Narcissa BABCOCK. She married Michael BAKER. Newcomb Genealogy states she died 22 Feb 1883 and gives no location. She is found in Mattoon, Coles Co IL in the 1880 census (ED 55, page 42, as Laura Baker) living with their married daughter Amelia (Mrs. John Rauch). I wish to verify date and place of death.
