Wife of William Whitebread.

Lot/Plot: 7-6

William and Elizabeth were listed in the 1895 Homewood, Franklin, Kansas State census, both as age 78, so Elizabeth died in 1897 rather than 1892. Three census reports list Elizabeth's birth ca. 1816. Two census reports list her birth ca. 1817, and two list her birth ca. 1818. In addition to the federal reports, William & Elizabeth are listed in the 1875, 1885, & 1895 Franklin County, Kansas State census reports. Two of these reports also record William's Civil War service and there is also an 1891 GAR record from the post at Homewood, Franklin, Kansas that records his service.
