Louisa Archer was born about 1842 in Platte County, Missouri, youngest daughter (and sixth of nine children) of Isaac and Jane (Brown) Archer. She married attorney John C.C. Thornton on 1 April 1864 in Weston, Missouri, while the Civil War still raged. Their first child was born in Weston, and after the end of the War they settled in Montana about 1866, where John set up a law practice and made his fortune investing in the mining business there, and where their other eight children were born. Louisa (whose name was pronounced "Lou-EYE-sah") became a relatively wealthy widow at the age of 45, and at about 60 moved to New York City, where her married daughter lived, and lived out her remaining years there. She died in 1916, aged 73.
