Interesting. Their son Edwin Thomas married Sarah Morgan whose parent were also from Wales, her father, Thomas J Morgan, mother Tabitha Evans b. 1829. I wonder if Tabitha and Elsie's mother Sarah Evans were related? I will have to get out the Welch family bible out and look at the entries to see if I can see a connection. Thanks so much, 10 years and have been stuck. I have looked on different websites in MO but not sure if I have found the right one. I found one for Macon co. and searched that and found some land stuff for Elsie. I will have to search again. Which site did you find death cert? Thanks again...
