1904 - "Roseville, Dec 14. - Mrs Early E. Wood died at her home in this place last week Monday morning after an illness of only three days. She had been sick with pleura pneumonia but heart trouble is supposed to have been the direct cause of her death. Mrs. Wood was a daughter of the late Daniel Watson, Esq., and leaves a husband and a daughter aged 14. She is also survived by her mother, two sisters and one brother, who deeply mourn her loss. She was a devout Christian and the assurance that their loss is her gain is a comfort to the family. She was greatly devoted to her home and seldom left it except to attend church. The funeral services were held from the Baptist church last Wednesday, Rev. F.H. Baker, of Tioga, officiating. The church was filled with sympathizing friends and there was a profuse display of floral offerings. Interment in the Roseville cemetery.".

John registered to pay taxes 1816 in Sullivan Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania. Sullivan Township was formed in 1816. It was taken from Covington Township. Its original boundaries included the southern half of Rutland formed in 1829, and the northern part of Ward which was formed in 1852. John was listed as the head of a family on the 1820 Census in Sullivan Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania.

Sophronia was listed as the head of a family on the 1830 Census in Sullivan Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania. Sophronia lived alone in 1830 aged 30-40. She was next door to her sister Phoebe Rose and her husband WIlliam Luddington. She was listed as Saffrona Watson. This helps date her marriage to Thomas Rexford which apparently had not occurred by the time of the 1830 census. None of her young children were with her at the time of the census.
In the Census of 1850, Sophronia was listed as a head of household in Rutland Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania. Youngest sons, John and Charles were in the household with David and Sophronia this year. Sophronia's third husband David Crippen is father to her son in law George Crippen who married her daughter Louisa Watson. Info has her born in Putney, Rutland County Vermont. Putney is in Windham County. Poultney is in Rutland County. I assume the Rutland County is correct because brother Enos is said to have been born in Pultney which is similar to Poultney. Sophronia travelled with her parents and siblings in 1807 from Connecticut to Sullivan Township at age 17. Mansfield Advertiser 7 Dec 1881: Died Mrs Watson, Roseville, 92 years, one day last week, mother of Daniel Watson Esq.

A 1907 newspaper obit from the Minnie Kenyon Scrapbook.
On the morning of October 19 there passed peacefully into rest, from her home in Roseville, Mrs. Clarina Rose Watson, widow of the late Daniel Watson. Clarina Rose was born in Roseville, April 11, 1834, and was consequently, 73 years old at the time of her death. She was married to Daniel Watson, September 8, 1853. Six children were born to them, three of whom died in 1877, of diphtheria, within a period of three weeks. Another daughter, Minnie, wife of E. E. Wood, was taken away in 1904, only two remaining, ida and Dee, who remain upon the farm. A stepdaughter, Mrs. Henry Smith, resides at Big Pond. In April, 1906, Mrs. Watson was stricken with organic heart trouble, and during the past six months also suffered from spinal ataxia, which was the immediate cause of her death. Mrs. Watson was an earnest Christian woman, faithful and true in her devotion to her Lord, and of unselfish service to those around her. Many are the lives that have been made better, and the hearts that received encouragement as a result of her tender ministry. She was a faithful member of the Baptist church. The funeral was held from the home on Monday, October 21, and was conducted by her pastor, the Rev. S. Harrett, assisted by the Rev. S. Earley, who spoke tenderly of his association with her during many years of acquaintance. The singing was excellent and formed a very important part of the impressive service.
