Documentation:
* Dorwin and Elizabeth were married at the home of his brother William and his wife Caroline at Anchor, IL. Dorwin's death record shows that he had a Perinephretic abcess; Dr. F C Hull. Dorwin was called "Dow". His uncle was Dow Beeler, brother of Mary Beeler. Perhaps "Dow" was a nickname for "Dorwin"?
* Elizabeth signed her name as "Lizzie" on papers after the death of her father. Later, according to her son Roy, she was "Aunt Liz" to nieces and nephews. She along with her parents and ten siblings traveled from PA to IL by covered wagon, about 1865 when she was 9 years old.
