      Elizabeth, the daughter of Hiram and Rachel Danford, was born March 6,
      1832, died March 7th 1909. She united in marriage with Wm. Lashley,
      September 2, 1852. To this union eleven children were born, of whom ten

      Batesville; Leroy T. of Kennonsburg; Margaret J. Ryan of Pleasant City;
      Harriet F. Botkins of Sherman, W. Va.; Van A., Samuel P., of Buffalo Or;
      Isaac J., Lydia C., and John R., at home. One died in infancy. She is
      also survived by 36 grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren. The aged
      father stillsurvives with the children, and is very feeble and is
      waiting for the hour to come when he can meet her on the other shore.
      She united with the M.E. church about 1850 and always remained a true
      follower of her Savior and always sawthe bright side of everything and
      to those in trouble she gave a helping hand and was ready to do her part.
      She was a dutiful wife and a loving mother andwas a woman of excellent
      (unreadable), honest, kind-hearted and generous to a fault. She bore her
      sufferings without a murmur. She had been an invalid for over five years
      and never seemed to get discouraged and always said when the Lord was
      ready to take her home she was ready. She was a good neighbor loved by
      all who knew her. Her presence will be greatly missed in the community
      in which she lived.
