Added by S. Ferrall 4/22/15:
The Woodmansee burial book records her burial in Paint Rock (St. Joseph) cemetery, but like the obit, does not have her first name. More likely she is buried in Wexford cemetery with her husband. The Woodmansee book also records her burial there.

She is Ellen, w/o Timothy. They are enumerated in Lafayette twp. on census records 1870, 1880, 1885.
