For whatever reason, in the 1870 census, Delilah is named Delia and her age is given as one year younger than Cyrus. Don't think she liked that when she found out!

At the time of the 1880 census, Cyrus had died. Delilah was living with Alonzo and Matilda Capen. Matilda reported she was born in NY and both her parents were born in Vermont. Delilah said she was born in Vermont, but that both of her parents had been born in Massachusetts.

Sharp Cemetery has been largely abandoned. Only a few stones remain and most of those are broken. Delilah's and her husband's stone are at the back right, beyond the large tree in the picture. Both stones are broken, lying on the ground, and will soon be unreadable [2001].

Had five children. (Cleveland Genealogy, No. 1934).
