Sources conflict: One history states Elizabeth left one child.The other sources state she was childless. These are histories submitted to the DUP.
I suspect she is buried in the Salt Lake City Cemetery. Her sister Robena plot: E-7-3-5W who married Jesse and
Lovenia E-7-3-3E who married Jesse are in the S.L.C. Cemetery.
I called the Cemetery Office and they checked internments:
