Elizabeth's date of death is uncertain. In her husband's obituary, it was stated that she died in October of 1872. In the biography of William H. Randolph, Elizabeth's brother-in-law, it was stated that Elizabeth died October 13, 1873. Current records for Oakwood Cemetery show a death year of 1878, but those records have proved to be inaccurate in many cases. Issues of The Macomb Journal from October 1872 and October 1873 were short, containing no death notices. No death notice for Elizabeth appeared in an 1878 issue.
