My grandson uses my computer too, so when I saw a reply from him, Sawyer 93, thought I better tell you so you won't be confused. I do not believe our death records of Ross county started recording until 1877, but will check that out on wednesday. also I will look at the cemetery record where John is buried to see if Eliz is there also, with a stone.It is unlikely there is a death cert. for her, but I will look. our society also has old funeral home records, so I will look there, I have been doing genealogy, mostly family, for 15-20 years, but I am never able to say I am finished. someone once said, she could go all the way back to Adam and Eve and still not be satisfied. gwen .
