Subject: Re: [INDAVIES] BRITTAIN surname
Would this book be at the library? I am looking for an Eliza J
(Holtsclaw)
Parsons, married on Sept 15, 1881. She is buried at Old Union
Cemetery in
an
unmarked grave. Hiram Parsons was married to her and after her death,
he
married Cindy Cave in 1895. So those are the only dates I have. He was
first
married to Elizabeth Dillon, who also was buried at Old Union
Cemetery in
an
unmarked grave. Any info greatly appreciated.
