Aged 10y 2m 10d. DAU. OF L. & M. AIRGOOD

Samantha was the daughter of Lewis (Louis) Airgood (1838-1912) and Mary A. Wagener (1839-1900.)
Lewis Airgood was the son of Frederick and Maria Airgood who are buried at this cemetery.
Lewis Airgood # 105971366 at Riverview Cemetery, South Bend, Indiana.
Mary A. Wagener Airgood #105971352 at Riverview Cemetery, South Bend, Indiana.

1860 Census Union Township, DeKalb County, Indiana
Lewis Airgood age 23, born PA, occupation potter
Mary Airgood age 20, born Ohio
Samantha Airgood age 2, born Indiana
Joanna Airgood age 1, born Indiana
James T. Waggon... age 16. apprentice

Lewis Airgood worked as a potter most of his life. It appears he was an apprentice in the 1850 Census in Goshen, Indiana at the age of 13. He was in Cromwell, Noble Co., Indiana for the 1870 and 1880 census working as a potter. He is in Cromwell in 1900 but is now working at the sawmill with Moore relatives. Other Airgood relatives lived around Cromwell. By 1910 he had moved to South Bend and was still working; he was a flag man for the railroad.

The cleaned tombstone shows more clearly the date of little Samantha's death. An Airgood genealogy written in 2004 also gives this death date. We will probably never know any more about little Samantha's short life and death.
