There are two memorials for her husband William Brinkley, as well as two grave markers in different cemeteries in different counties, with different death dates.
It is believed that William was also married to Plina Louise Berrier Hinkle and had five children with her. Their children are Furnando Lee, Vaughn Lee Pierce, Lamar Cordie, Elva, and William Watson. Some of their children's birth years are prior to Elizabeth's death in 1897. On the 1900 Census for Watauga County, N.C., he is listed as widowed with five of Elizabeth's children still living with him.

**I have found 2 William Brinkley in davidson county. I believe that William L. Brinkley that I sent an edit for was the son of Daniel and Nancy Brinkley. Nancy in 1870 is listed as head of household with William L. Brinkley. I believe William Brinkley same birthdate moved to Watauga county is the son of John and Sarah Brinkley.
