Your records as far as I can recall agree with mine, I will do same research and get back to you. Sarah Pyle Schwartz is buried at the cemetery (Kimmel-Elkville) near Elkville which is across the road from where she lived. After her first husband Edward died she married his older brother George. George is buried in the same cemetery as Sarah and Edward is buried at the McElvain cemetery near DuQuoin. I have been to both cemeteries and have pictures of their headstones. My great grandfather was Horatio. Horatio and his family moved to Idaho in 1881 and I have a picture of their log house on the Lemhi River above Salmon with Mary and her husband Robert McElvain when they were visiting.from Illinois - - - Bill KTompk7744@aol.com wrote: > The "George genealogies" have Edward Schwartz Sr (3/14/1800-9/13/1843) > marrying Sarah Pyle, born 10/24/1807-7/12/1895.
