Thanks Ellie!

That was interesting, and how sad that he had to die so young. It is confirmed tho, that Laura noticed Cap first, but decided she wanted to be with Almanzo instead.. It isn't really explained whether she set her sites on Almanzo because Cap was courting Mary Powers, or if she had made this decision before that fact.

Here's another Cap page: http://capgarland.cjb.net/

There is another photo of Cap and other info.

I think she died in childbirth.

If that's true how sad!(even though it was common back then) I wonder if any of her grandchildren or great-granchildren realize that it's here in the books.
I have to agree with Ellie, Cap does look older in his picture much older than 26.
