Eliza Jane was married in the "bride's home" . I wonder how this family's fortune changed so suddenly as to have a residence. Melissa Coram, her mother died 9 months prior to this marriage and the family lived in the poor house at the time according to a newspaper report from the Unionville newpaper from Putnam Missouri dated 31 July 1884 in the Obituary section under Lemen Missouri, It reads: "Mrs. Blanchard, a poor person at the ocunty house, died last Monday. She leaves a family of six children, two of them twin infants. They also lived there 4 years prior to the marriage according to the 1880 census, Willian Township in Putnam county pg 15. surveyors dist #5, 17 June 1880. I don't know which information listed for each person in this family comes from which source unless I specify. I received nicely printed group sheets from cousin Rosie Morgan from Paola, Ks 66061 work she completed for me 1983-1984. The sources listed are Mrs. Lilian Murphy, a family member. Records of Rev. Lewis Elles, Harold Boulton, a family member and cemetary records.
