My Grandfather Riley's grandfather, Ezekiel S. Timmons moved from Marshall Co., IA after the death of his wife, Louisa Shively Timmons from tuberculosis in 1874. She is buried in Marshall Co...and in 1880, Ezekiel is listed in Jefferson Twp., Marshall Co., IA with all of his children, a housekeeper Lucy Kent and two of her children, Flora and John Kent.
By 1885, Ezekiel`is on the Crawford Iowa state census without housekeeper and married to a Flora M. Timmons--possibly the daughter of Lucy Kent. Also during this time, one of Ezekiel's daughter, Cora B. b. Aug 15 1864 died April 17, 1883. I have been unable to locate the cause of her death- was it TB? and where she was buried. She is not listed in Marshall Co., IA at all so I am thinking maybe she was buried in Crawford Co.
Then, Ezekiel's only surviving daughter from his first marriage, Ella Ellen b.5 Oct 1866, died on 21 May 1888 under same circumstances- do not know cause of death or where she was buried.
Both of these girls were young ladies and to my knowledge and info I have gotten to this point indicate that they never married. Can anyone tell me the names of the cemeteries in Crawford Co., and does anyone have inforamiton for these two girls?
Thanking you in advance,
Carol
