I'm searching for any information on Eleanor GIFFORD, who married Stephen SHIPMAN 1808 @ Shelby Co, KY. Don't know when or where she was born, and the only clue to a sib or father is the finding that a James GIFFORD signed her marriage certificate, there in Kentucky in 1808. There was not an indication whether James was a brother or father, or ? Eleanor and her husband migrated North to Sullivan Co, Indiana for a short time then the last place I can find them is in Crawford Co, IL (near Hardinville, IL), where Stephen died in 1849. It appears Eleanor was still alive in 1849, but she doesn't show up on any census or other papers written after Stephen died, nor do we find evidence of where she is buried or where she died. Please help me. -- Thank you & sincerely, Allan Griffith, # 1 Jodi Lane, Bloomington, IL, USA 61701 home phone: 309-829-2063, if no answer try 309-828-2059 most reliable email: magriff@bigfoot.com alternates if above doesn't work: magriff@davesworld.net OR magrif@pol.net Personal HomePage: http://www.bigfoot.com/~magriff/ PEG HomePage: http://homepage.davesworld.net/~magriff
