The optional theme for the 32nd entry in our challenge is one of our 32 3rd great grandparents. I have actually written about a few of them so I decided on Juliet Graham for this week.
Juliet was born October 12, 1830 to Elijah Graham and Sarah Ann Barnett in Clarion County, Pennsylvania. Juliet was the last born of 10 children and one of the four girls. Juliet’s sister Jane died when she was 15 years old.
Juliet married Alexander McManigle in 1848 in Jefferson County. They had eight children, Alvin Duff, James Corey, Josiah B, Sarah Ann, Milton Monroe, Ira Oscar, Almaretta Florence, and Stephen A. Sarah Ann died when she was 12 in the year 1868. Juliet’s mom, Sarah Ann Barnett, lived to be 95 and outlived three of her girls. Juliet outlived three of her sisters and two of her brothers.
Juliet outlived her husband, Alexander, by 29 years. Alexander and Juliet were married for 27 years at his death. Juliet was a widow for longer than she was married. Juliet died January 26, 1904. She died in St. Petersburg, Clarion County, and is buried in Mt. Tabor Cemetery.
