I previously wrote a post about Sarah Gardiner Lawton here. She was born in South Kingston, Rhode Island to Clark Lawton and Sarah A. Gardiner.

Death Certificate for Sarah A. Gardiner Carpenter Died 29 February 1904 |
She was married to John L. Carpenter in Valley Falls, Rhode Island on 5 May 1845. She died just over the Rhode Island state line in So Attleboro, Massachusetts on 29 February 1904 of senile debility and thrombosis.
I wonder what the odds are of being born or dying on Leap Year Day.
