I believe that she never married, was born in Greene County, Illinois, lived briefly in Missouri right across the Mississippi River during the Civil War and then returned to what was now Jersey County to live with her sister Eleanor Goodman English and her husband Lloyd Thomas English after their wedding. I see that the family has buried two people in the same large grave and placed a single stone for them there. A child and a sister in law (also a first cousin). Were they short of space?
