Greetings from Streator, Do you have the dates of death? I don't have the Allen Township Cemetery at home. The Ransom book stated that David died on August 14, 1877. His name is not on the Streator Free Press obituary list, the Monitor is not yet indexed. The Ransom book lists Hannah's death as July 3, 1833. Now, that must by a typo. Anna and David are in the 1870 La Salle Co. Census. Hannah is not listed in the 1870 Census for La Salle Co. Was she living in Dwight with Elvina and Dr. Weiler by then? Could Dr. Weiler have been a dentist? Elvina married Dr. Weiler in 1875, at the age of 45. Was this the first marriage for both of them? Do you have the dates of death for Elvina's siblings, Barnes, Lavira, or Hazel? Maybe their obituaries would have some information. (Allen might have died June 27, 1930.)
