1811 Marriage / PartnerElecta MINOR and Minot SMITH 26 June 1811, Woodbury, Connecticut, USA (Hotchkissville)
She was 12 years old.
The War of 1812 was a conflict between the United States and Great Britain, lasting from 1812 to 1815. It was primarily fueled by issues such as trade restrictions due to Britain's ongoing war with France, impressment of American sailors into the British Navy, and British support of Native American tribes against American expansion. The war ended with the Treaty of Ghent, restoring pre-war boundaries but resolving few of the initial disputes.From the 1840s through the 1880s, thousands trekked westward, carrying only a few belonging and supplies for the journey, and settling on the western frontier, forever changing the American West.1842 Marriage of ChildAllen SMITH married 11 November 1842, Bethlehem, Connecticut, USA (Bethlem) to Lucy SKIDMORE
