Query

Eliza Jane BURTON was born in Winterset, Madison, Iowa on the 2nd of November 1870. Her family moved to Box Butte County somewhere between Mar 1883 and Oct 1885. Her parents were William Taylor BURTON and Mahala Ann SMITH. We know that she was married to at least 4 men in her life time. The first marriage was to Tom EUBANKS who was born in abt. 1868 in Northville, Tennessee. We believe they were married in about 1889. They had one child, Truman EUBANKS who was born in Lawn(I believe called Hemmingford now), Box Butte, Nebraska on the 17th of July 1890. Truman died in Dec 1966 in Stevensville, Ravalli, Montana. My Aunt Cora Herring Lough believed that Tom was a "gambler" and was killed in Thermopolis, Hot Springs, Wyoming. He supposedly died in a gun fight. I'm not sure if that was in 1890 or 1891 that this happened or if Eliza Jane divorced him before this happened, we are unsure. We do know that Eliza Jane was married on the 2nd of October of 1891 to Isham K. JOHNSTON in Box Butte, Nebraska. We think she was divorced from Isham. Isham was born in Dearborn County, Indiana in abt. 1856. As far as I know Eliza Jane and Isham had no children together. From my Aunt Cora's records we have Eliza Jane marrying two more times. She supposedly married an E.J. BERG in abt. 1910. Then she married again to a Roy ALLOWAY in abt. 1925. Eliza Jane died in Seattle, Washington on the 4th of March 1958. E.J. BERG and Eliza Jane may have married in Thermopolis, Wyoming. I think they would have married before 1911 and so it would have still been in Fremont County. If anyone can help me find information on Eliza Jane or her 4 husbands I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much for the opportunity to post this information.

They had one child, Truman EUBANKS who was born in Lawn(I believe called Hemmingford now), Box Butte, Nebraska on the 17th of July 1890. Truman died in Dec 1966 in Stevensville, Ravalli, Montana. My Aunt Cora Herring Lough believed that Tom was a "gambler" and was killed in Thermopolis, Hot Springs, Wyoming. He supposedly died in a gun fight. I'm not sure if that was in 1890 or 1891 that this happened or if Eliza Jane divorced him before this happened, we are unsure. We do know that Eliza Jane was married on the 2nd of October of 1891 to Isham K. JOHNSTON in Box Butte, Nebraska. We think she was divorced from Isham. Isham was born in Dearborn County, Indiana in abt. 1856. As far as I know Eliza Jane and Isham had no children together. From my Aunt Cora's records we have Eliza Jane marrying two more times. She supposedly married an E.J. BERG in abt. 1910. Then she married again to a Roy ALLOWAY in abt. 1925. Eliza Jane died in Seattle, Washington on the 4th of March 1958. E.J. BERG and Eliza Jane may have married in Thermopolis, Wyoming. I think they would have married before 1911 and so it would have still been in Fremont County. If anyone can help me find information on Eliza Jane or her 4 husbands I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much for the opportunity to post this information.
