FatherHumphrey Posey Lynch (1837-1898)
MotherMargaret Evelyn Harrill (1839-1921)
Misc. Notes
Elizabeth is William’s niece and daughter of Hunphrey Posey Lynch.
She married her uncle William Rucker Lynch and moved to Indiana. According to her mother's death notice posted 11/10/1921 in a Rutherford County newspaper called “The Sun” , one of Eveline's daughters died in Oklahoma (I think it should have stated Indiana) just prior to her death. This had to be Elizabeth since all of Elizabeth's sisters died after the death of their mother and in Rutherford Co.
Obituary said she died as a result of a stroke.
