They were residing in Bedford, Trimble Co., KY in October 1875 possibly in the residence of their son-in-law John D. Pope but moved back to Louisville before December 1880 because I've had some indication that Louisville is where Eliza died. They were well-known and respected in the Louisville area. I don't know if David died in Bedford or Louisville but my thinking is that his death happened before Eliza's. I live close to the WI State Archives but they don't have Louisville newspapers around 1840. I found an article in the 29 Oct. 1875 edition of the Courier Journal stating that David Parkhurst returned there after disappearing from Louisville about 35 years before that. The article stated that his disappearance created widespread interest as he was well known and respected in the Louisville community and throughout the state. I'm hoping to locate death records as well as obituaries for these two people in the Louisville and or area papers and archives. Can you help me out or point me in the direction of someone who could do lookups. Thank you, Peg Carpenter
