Individual Details

Elizabeth Breathed

(1820 - 21 Mar 1863)



Elizabeth married Steven Snodgrass of Martinsburg, WV and had seven children. [This seems slightly erroneous as Elizabeth was buried in the church graveyard in Washington Co, 1863. West Virginia not yet a state.]

Washington Co MD:
Stephen R. Snodgrass married Elizabeth Brethed, 11 Jan 1841.

Elizabeth died in her 43d year.

Apparently Stephen died a few years after the 1850 census. And her widowed mother and orphaned niece had come to live with her.
