[S1170] Gary Bell, How We Came to be Here (A Bell Family History) (Michigan: self published, 19 Apr 2009), Samuel p4 The Bells’ third daughter, Julia, was one of five young men and women from Cayuga County to matriculate at the State Normal School at Albany in 1847 (Daily Advertiser, April 23, 1847). She later married Erie “Tibbits” (E.T.) Ward , who worked, appropriately enough, on the Erie Canal. The Cayuga Chief noted their wedding in its edition of Thursday, April 26, 1849, referring to the groom as “Erie S. Ward” and the bride as “Miss Julia E. Bell, dau. of Samuel Bell, Esq.” The wedding was held on April 18 “near Montezuma,” with Rev. Aaron Cross officiating. They then remained in the Town of Mentz, where “Tibbits” was a merchant and they shared a house in 1850 with Julia’s cousin, William Wright (age 19) who worked as a clerk (cf. Chapter 7), and a man
named John Ross (age 41). However, like her sister Maria, Julia died just a few years after her marriage (and four years prior to Maria’s death). The Auburn Daily Advertiser of Tuesday, April 4, 1854, carried this notice: “WARD, Mrs. Julia E. Wife of E.T. Ward. dau. of Samuel Bell of Montezuma. d. Salem, Marion Co. Ill, Mar. 7th of Chill Fever (no age).” “Chill Fever” was a common term for malarial or intermittent fever characterized by paroxysms. There’s no indication as to whether she left any children.
