[From Find-A-Grave]
Lovicia Goldman, wife of John Mewmaw, was born on May 30, 1813 and died on January 27, 1888 in Payson Township, Adams County, Illinois at age 75 ys 8ms 29dys. Her husband John died in April of 1881. Their deaths and burials were recorded in the Adams County News 1875 - 1896, the paper stated that they died in the Payson Township area but did not specify a place of burial, due to the date of their deaths, I assume they were buried in the New Payson Cemetery as are other members of their family.
