Hi Joy, Well, Solomon and Catherine Bishop married on November 11, 1866 in Warren County, Iowa, which is directly east of Madison County. I don't show either of them listed in the two burial indexes for Madison County, but that doesn't always mean a lot. Let me do some more checking and I will get back to you.
