Individual Details

Elizabeth M. SHOUP

(1829 - 19 Apr 1887)

Some info indicates that the John Folkerth she married was son of Michael Folkerth and Anna Hall?

1860 Montgomery Co Ohio census:

Folkerth, Elizabeth M 30fO
Charles B 11mO
George F 9mO
Ethon C 5mO
John F 3mO
Vance, Elizabeth 11fO

Just couldn't resist digging into this one. I had previously found a listing in the Montgomery County marriages index showing that an Elizabeth M. Folkerth m. Samuel Kiehl. Here is what I found in the 1870 Census so it looks like the marriage record does apply.

1870 Census Record, Montgomery County, Dayton W11, p. 417:
Kiehl, Samuel, 34, M, Teaching Public School, $3000, $325, Pennsylvania
--, Elizabeth, 41, F, Keeping house, Ohio
--, Chesterfield H., 8, M, attending school, Ohio
--, Hearrit A., 5, M, Ohio
Folkerth, Charles P., 21, M, Jour Tinner, $1200, Ohio
--, George, 19, M, Jour tinner, $1200, Ohio
--, Ethan C., 16, M, Clk Ice Cream Saloon, $1200, Ohio
--, John F[?], 13, M, Attending School, $1200, Ohio
??? [couldn't read this but definitely not Folkerth or Keihl], Mary E. 8, F, attending school, Ohio
Shoup, Elizabeth, 8, F, attending school, Ohio

So, it looks like Elizabeth (w/o John remarried) and had more children.
