Eliza, daughter of Selburn Harris & Margaret Unknown, married Rial Neal Creason, about 1885, Ray Co.,MO. To this
union were born; Frank,Beula,Iola & Inez


Eliza's father's name was actually Lilburn Harris. Sometimes hard to decipher off of the census records. Her mother wasn't Margaret, it was Mary. Mary and Margaret were both daughters of Rensalear and Nancy (Tarwater) Clark. Mary was Lilburn's first wife, and the mother of most of his children. After her death he married Salina Veach, by whom he had a couple more children, and after Salina's death he married Margaret, who'd been widowed herself several times. They had no children together.

An interesting side note: Lilburn married two of Ephraim Clark's sisters, and Ephraim married two of Lilburn's sisters. Ephraim's 3rd wife was Lilburn's sister Julia; they're my great-great grandparents. Also, Lilburn's daughter Sarah Elizabeth married John McAfee, my grandpa's uncle. It's a real intertwined tree!
