Seeking information about my grandmother (and family), Elizabeth Ford, born about 1896-1898 in Maryland and died around 1933-1935 in Baltimore. She married Clarence Lilly in 1914. They had a baby, Norine, in 1915 - Norine died in 1916 and is buried in Mt. Olivet Cemetery, Baltimore. My mother, Muriel Doris Lilly, was born in 1917. By the 1920 census, Elizabeth and Clarence were separated - divorced in 1921 and Clarence was awarded custody of my mother. I believe Elizabeth probably married again - efforts to locate a death certificate have been unsuccessful. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you - Mary Jane Huston Pettiss Parkersburg, WV Researching FORD, LILLY & BIBLEHEISER surnames in Maryland.
I don't know if this will help you, but I have information on Robert FORD, b 1785 who was married to Casandra Lancaster, b 1789. They were the parents of 9 children. Boyd, Robert, Mary, William, Harriet Tucker, Katherine, Benjamin L., Martha & Thomas. Some of these children used the spelling FOARD. I don't know if any of these children had a daughter by the name of Elizabeth or not. This FORD/FOARD family was in the Baltimore County/Baltimore area. There is some information on this family in the MD ST HIST SOC in Balt in the book "The LANCASTER FAMILY" A History of Thomas & Phebe Lancater of Bucks Co., PA & their Descendants. This book covers from 1711 to 1902 and is compiled by Harry Fred Lancaster. It is a great book, I don't have all the information on this family.
