[10953] There are many different variations of this name in print: Lewisa, Levisa, etc. I believe Margaret Levisa is the proper name.
Date discrepancy? Church records in Augusta Co., VA show that Louvisa Smith was baptised on 6 Oct. 1745, which would have made her only 11 years old at the time of marriage. Is it possible that her baptism was confused with that of her brother who supposedly was baptised 19 July 1741? Records need to be rechecked. Her name is reported variously as Margaret Louisa, Louisa, Louvisa or Levisa.

Obituary image from the Ringgold Co. GenWeb site says she was orphaned at about age 12 (if true, that would place her mother's death about 1847). After her marriage to Horatio Morse, they "crossed the plains with an ox team, being five months on the way." They lived in California for about a year, when her husband drowned in the American River. She returned to the east "by steamer" (this would involve catching a ship at San Francisco, sailing to Panama, then taking a train across to the port of Aspinwall, and sailing from there to New York), where she lived with her late husband's family. Her only child was born there. Next, she married John W. Judson, and they came west to Ringgold Co., IA in 1863.
