Miriam was 44 yrs, 3mo., 11 days old when she died.

I also received information from Sharon Van Bebber, which says that Miriam died in 1870 instead of 1871.  But, if the 44 years is correct then she must have died in 1871. Sharon also sent me a copy of an obituary for her son Chauncey Hadley which said that he was burried next to his mother.

I received some information from Sharon Van Bebber in San Rafael, CA.  Most of
it is the same as what I copied from the Bible of Donald Elkerton.  Elias's
wife's name however is different.  In Donald Elkerton's Bible her name is Ida
Heart probably because according to the information from Sharon Ida's first
marriage was to William Hart. This information from Sharon says that her name
was Ida Eliza Wygant which is her maiden name.  Also, Elias's death date is
different, Sharon's says February 8. Sharon sent me a copy of an obituary which says that he was burried in Santa Rosa at I.O.O.F. Lawn Cemetery.

Notes:
                   Copied information from family Bible in possesion of Donald Elkerton, San

Jean.
I also received information for Sharon Van Bebber, 465 Pinewood Drive, San
Rafael, CA  94903, 415-479-0691 (92-94)  Sharon's information says that
Annetta's middle name is Jane instead of Jean.  I would tend to go with Jane
because there are other Janes in the family.
