Notes for: Stewart C. Baldwin

Transcription of marriage record says Steward S. Baldwin. They were married by Rev. B. Stelle. The notice of the death of his daughter, Lizzie, gives his middle initial as "C."

This comes from a New Jersey newspaper:

January 5, 1886, Forty-Eighth Volume, No. 21

On the morning of the 3rd inst., Miss Lizzie Baldwin, daughter of Mr. Stewart C. Baldwin, of Trenton, (formerly a resident of this county,) while suffering from mental derangement occasioned by over study before her recent graduation from one of the Trenton schools, eluded the vigilance of her parents and escaped from the house, and running to the water power, nearly a mile distant, threw herself into the water. Her body was recovered next day... She was engaged to be married to Mr. Jacob Parse, of Flemington, and when her body was found in the water the engagement ring was still upon her finger. Her mother was a Miss Susan Bodine, sister to Mr. J. P. Bodine, of this place.
