About 1853 the family moved from Franklin Co, Maine, to Livingston Co, Illinois. Then about 1900 the family relocated to La Junta, Otero Co, Colorado.
Elizabeth was age 80 when she passed away and had only lived in Colorado for about 4 years.
I have never once seen her middle name as Smith, however; since her grandma was Elizabeth Smith, I am making the assumption that her middle initial of S. is for Smith.
