NOTES:

Lizzie’s maiden name was Crum.

She was the daughter of Sylvester L. Crum (who was born 1836).

Her mother must have died before 1870 because her father married Sarah Elizabeth Saint John, the daughter of John Saint John and Nancy (Foster) Saint John. Sylvester's wife, Sarah, was born May 1850, in Illinois, so was too young to be Lizzie’s mother, and her siblings were all at least 7-8 years younger than her.

Her father and step-mother are buried in Riverside cemetery.
