    • According to Adaline Going Johnson's letter to Rhoda Street dated Feb 13, 1893 Indianapolis, and transcribed by Perry Jay Stearns, she and Lester were married on May 18, 1836 at the home of Mr. Hosner where Adaline was boarding. "Mrs. Hosmer was an old school teacher of mine in St. Johnsbury".

      It is not entirely certain that they were married in Boston (where the Hosner's lived) or in St. Johnsbury where Lester's parents lived and where other sources say they were married.
