David - This is all I have. Green C. Belcher was born Aug., 1855; his wife Lettie was born June 1861 d/o Ernie & ---Gillespie; Green and Lettie married on May 12, 1883. In 1870, I do not show a sister Elizabeth - only Rhoda, Mary, and Martha. Elizabeth must have been born after 1870 or was a middle name. I do not find a Peter Jarrell listed in 1870. I find a Mary Jane Belcher, age 16, married a Daniel Jarrell, age 21, on Jan 17, 1879. I find an R. M. Belcher, age 19, married Joseph Jarrell, age 22, on Oct 18, 1877. These are the only Belcher/Jarrell marriages I see on my list that covers 1854-1931. The answers must be in the 1900 annotated census - I have only the Belchers and Stewarts on the 1900 census-your Eliz. and Peter would be under Jarrell in 1900. Happy Thanksgiving.
