I did not know the years of the Guard. That may help. I cannot find either in any census and thus far the cemeteries do not have Eli in their records. On the children's death certificates they list Eli as their father. I shall get started with the middle name idea. I need to recheck my mountain of files, but I am sure the children listed Eli's birth as being in Ohio. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
