I may do you more harm then good but here is what I found. First, there is no record of Elizabeth marrying Andrew Jackson Manrose in Harrison County, Missouri. Some people in that area got married in Decatur County, Iowa. That might be an idea to follow. There is only one Rolofson buried in Harrison County: Winfield Rolofson, died March 8, 1878, aged 21y 8m 1d. Buried in Prairie Chapel Cemetery, Sherman Township (quite a ways from Eagleville). Rolofson's married in Harrison County: T. S. Rolofson married Elizabeth M. Kincade on September 30, 1884. Wilbur Thomas Rolofson married Catharine F. Doubrawskey on August 7, 1873. Charles M. Rolfson (spelling correct) of Julesburg, Colorado, married Frances L. Powell of Ridgeway, Missouri, on __ September, 1908, at Ridgeway. (License issued September 3, filed September 10, marriage would have been in between there somewhere.) That is all there is. Here is what I looked through: 1) Harrison County Missouri Cemetery Records Harrison County Genealogical Society Bethany, Missouri 1985 2) Harrison County Missouri Marriage Records Book A, 1845-1881 Harrison County Genealogical Society Bethany, Missouri 1983 3) Harrison County Missouri Marriage Records 1881-1899 Harrison County Genealogical Society Bethany, Missouri 1983 4) Harrison County Missouri Marriage Records 26 OCT 1899 to 17 FEB 1917 Harrison County Genealogical Society Bethany, Missouri 1999 5) Harrison County Missouri Marriage Records 17 FEB 1917 to 01 DEC 1932 Harrison County Genealogical Society Bethany, Missouri 1999 6) History of the State of Missouri - Illustrated Harrison & Mercer Counties (Reprint) The Godspeed Publishing CO. 1888 7) The History of Harrison County, Missouri George W.
