Caldwell County Mysteries



I'm trying to identify an elderly woman in an old photo that I think is very likely my ancestor, 

Amy Lovina Yount. She was born in Lincoln County, N.C. in 1826 and lived until 1915. She 

lived most of her life in Caldwell County, N.C. and is buried at the Sardis cemetery in Hudson, 

N.C. She was married to David L. Miller, 1827-1864, who was killed during the Civil War and 

is buried at the Confederate cemetery in Raleigh. David and Amy had seven children before his 

death, but Amy never married again. I feel about 80 percent confident that the woman in the 

photo is Amy Lovina Miller(Yount), but I've been trying to find other descendants of the family 

who might could help me to confirm it. If anyone can help please contact me.
