Birth
about 1813 31 19
Note: Although military records give 1813 as calculated birth year, Alexandra Shand gives 1817. The former date fits with other records. He was employed as a teacher in New York in 1830 and the same year spent many months in Charleston SC as a clerk. These facts suggest that he could hardly have been born after 1813. The US Census for 1830 does not list household members by name but only age range. The record for the household of Elias Wolf suggests that T. L. Thorne was about 20 that year, therefore born about 1810.

Note: She is mentioned in letters of T. Lenington Thorne in 1830 and is very unlikely to have been born before the death of Abbe's first husband in 1827.

Note: At time of marriage in 1874 she gave her age as 34 yielding 1840 as presumptive birth year. However, her step-brother, T Lenington Thorne, mentions her in letters he wrote in 1830. She is very unlikely to have been born before the death of Abbe's first husband in 1827.

He was employed as a teacher in New York in 1830 and the same year spent many months in Charleston SC as a clerk. These facts suggest that he could hardly have been born after 1813.

Note

Florence Heynen (of San Diego) found that T. Lennington Thorne lived at 52 3rd St. NYC in 1836; same address as Elias Wolf that year. He was younger brother of Sarah Lennington Thorne Lefman. 1836 was the year she married Henry Lefman.
