Elizabeth is indeed my great-grandmother, and as you can see from her early death, she was never well. Her husband Josiah Austin left her with two children in Zanesville, Ohio. She depended on George and Emma Albright for support and later moved to Illinois with them. Grandpa (O.T. Austin) was taken in at the age of 10 and reared by the George Albright's and Maud, his sister, by the Shetrone family.
George Albright and Henry Albright were Orville Austin's uncles. One of George Albright's children married a Tolberd. My mother kept in touch with Mrs. Eva Tolberd in Blue Mound, Macon Cty, Illinois.
BTW, Orville T. Austin's grave is behind the flagpole, Row 13, Grave 12, if you would like to have that info
The grave for an Albright-Tolberd is near the graves of both O.T. Austin and Elizabeth Austin.
Thanks for your help. I wish I could get back there, but not right now!
