Erastus married Elizabeth Freeman on 24 October 1848 and shortly after the marriage, they went to Lockport, New York. In 1868 they came to Waverly, Bremer County, Iowa and settled there. I have attached the full obituary, in 3 parts. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
