Verified a true daughter of Benjamin Kendrick Pierce.. Info from Pierce Genealogy by Frederick Beech Pierce, of Boston...pg 166 and letters on file at NH Historical Society (two letters from Amanda Boykin, nee Amanda Pierce, informing Franklin Pierce of sister Charlotte's death in 1852). Letters also confirm Charlotte was married to Lang (1st name NOT mentioned).

Letter from Amanda Boykin (nee Pierce) of Richmond,Alabama dated Sept 12,1852 to Franklin Pierce, informing him of the death of sister Charlotte, informs Franklin that Mr Lang's family in Maine will care for Charlotte's two small sons.
