√ Daughter of Jonas Main

…

The proof that she is Jonas Main’s daughter is a court case in which her father sues a young man for failing to marry Isabel (breach of promise of marriage). A lessor proof is this 1850 census record wherein she appears in his household in Delaware County, Ohio.

Also listed in the family are her brothers Martin Main and Henry Bliss Main, both of whom served the Union during the Civil War. Martin Main was killed at Chancellorsville in May of 1863. Henry was a prisoner of war in Louisianna, and later lived through the siege of Vicksburg.
