TREZISE // PRYOR
Pat Feldman Oct 1996
TREZISE, Elizabeth (PRYOR) married 1860/62, probably in Scales Mound. Can anyone tell me the date? She was on the way home from a visit in Scales Mound with her mother, Mary PRYOR, in Dec 1906 when she became ill and died. The date of interment was Dec 16, and since she was buried in Bellingham, Washington it must have taken 10-14 days. I think that because of the circumstances of her death there might be a mention in the newspaper. Can anyone help me out? Any information and or suggestions deeply appreciated. Pat Feldman
