I'm re-posting this here from Husted-L as I didn't see it mirror'd... In addition I wonder if anyone knows if Audrey Franklin is still around, I had a question about the Sherows she posted elsewhere I was hoping she could answer...
Thanks

I was searching for something else and ran across this post. Thought I might add what I know to it...
I'm a direct descendent of Theron Sherow.
This is the story as I've come to understand it, which was quite different from our family tradition.
Basically Oliver and Elizabeth tried to elope despite both being married. Pinkerton agency that Theron had hired caught a break in the case when Elizabeth wrote a letter home giving away their location in Michigan.
The Elopement story is all over the internet in several different versions.
From what I've been able to determine Theron moved to Ithaca around 1906-07. Not sure where he married Alice but the post below seems to indicate it was in Dutchess.
IIRC, Ana took over Oliver's business and became quite successful.
Oliver OTOH ended up filing a bankruptcy in 1918. I haven't been able to locate their burial sites on any information after that on Oliver and Elizabeth.
Elizabeth's maiden name was Garrison, dau. of William H and Sarah Ann of Fishkill. If you look be aware that there were two William H Garrisons in Fishkill at the time.
WIlliam's parents have not been positively identified but it is believed they were Isaac Garrison and Sybil Field(s) of Orange county New York.
Elizabeth's mother was Sarah Ann Coles. Sarah has quite the family lineage.
I would like to share any information on Elizabeth if you have any...
Thanks
Christopher
