    [Note: this source lists a child Cynthia, giving no other information (i.e., no birth date, no marriage, no evidence, simply an unsupported assertion). No birth or death record has been located. In 1840, Lewis Dale's household shows him and a wife. In 1850 (lines 26-29, only sons Charles and William. In [1] (left side, lines 29-31), after Hannah had died, but before he remarried, only sons Charles and William. In 1861, when the grandfather's will leaves Hannah's share to her children, a guardian bond names only William Chancey Daily b. 1845, and Newell Howard Daily b. 1850. So clearly if there ever was a daughter Cynthia, she died in infancy. Cambridge VRs, p. 2:521, show the burial of a Cynthia in Oct 1842, age 16 m., which would imply a birth about June 1841. The death record of this Cynthia is recorded in Carlisle (no parents named), and the birthdate would of course conflict with the twins born 5 months earlier, so it doesn't appear that it could be this family. Without knowing the basis for thinking there was a daughter named Cynthia, then, it appears to be an error.]
