I know Charlotte is the mother of Barbara and the rest of the children.She and Joel are my great great grandparents.
Charlotte made a dress for her marriage to Joel and left this dress to Barbara with the stipulation that it be handed down to the oldest girl in each generation.This dress passed from Charlotte McCurdy Malone to her daughterBarbara Malone Fisher, to Charlotte Fisher Godwin, to Lottie Jeanette Godwin Ward, to Aleta Ward McElwaine.The last receipent had no girls and donated it to a museum.The dress is now about 145 years old.
