Parent-Proof notes for Ann Elizabeth Hillyard
Her name is known from her find-a-grave memorial and from her marriage record.
Birth, Parent-Proof, Designation notes for Dewitt Clinton (Spouse 1)
We know Dewitt from as the son of John from his presence in his father’s household in 1850. The record of his marriage in Rockingham County to Ann Elizabeth Hillyard says he was the son of John and Mary. He is designated S1d1.
It is the presence of this couple together in North Dakota in the 1900 Census, her name said to be Hillyard Martz, that confirms that Dewitt was indeed Dewitt Clinton Martz and makes me certain this couple tried in North Dakota is correctly identified.
