Patricia, thanks for the response. I was hoping that Elizabeth was on the 1870 census. Oh where can she be??? All the marriages you found were her children. I'm sure that since her husband died in 1865 or so, she will be living with one of her married children. However, David Leverett and Elmyra Reynolds are the only children I can find and she's not with them. The article I told you about lead me to believe she was living in either Pope, Saline or Johnson counties. between 1865 and 1872 when she died. I was going to try and tract the 3 girls Sarah Jane, Nancy and Mary Ann but I can't seem to find these girls who are now Reynolds as your marriage book shows. Not sure where to go from here. Thanks for your help. Kathy
