From Norway Tidings, p. 4 (1889?): Mrs. Sisson's mother whose name by second marriage became Mott, lived in town after she was 100 years of age, and was able at that extreme age to travel long distances to visit her grandchildren. She died in Utica when 107. Possibly some of our readers may remember "Old Granny Mott."
