Finding Letitia/Louisa
Hello. I am trying to find someone who died before 1889, probably in Illinois or Missouri. I can't find her after the 1865 Illinois census, where it appears that she was tallied with her mother.
The 1850 and 1860 census recorded her name as Letitia. Her mother's 1889 will said her married name was Louisa Cannon(?). It also seems to imply she may have had heirs. However, none of those heirs are named, unlike the other grandchildren. So, I'm not sure if that was usual just in case of unknown heirs.
Here's her page: https://www.familysearch.org/en/tree/person/sources/LHK8-8BG
And here is her mother's Will. Louisa's information is found under the third point. I don't know if Louisa was a middle name, or if that was transcription error.
Some trees have connected her to a man named 'James Brick' in Pennsylvania, but it seems that this is not correct.
Any help is appreciated! Thank you.

Did you see the record in Ancestry.com which also shows the same information about birth, location, date? Shows she died in Pa. It does match the Mother and Father and siblings as the same.

Hi @sc woz.
Unfortunately, I don't have an Ancestry subscription, so I cannot see the record. When I previously posted in General (I was advised to re-post here; I should've linked it, my apologies), I was told that that was a different Letitia, and the connection in other trees to this Letitia was erroneous.
Original Post:
It appears the link sent is for a person in one of those trees. Is there something else that is backing up a connection?
Thank you!
