I have been working on the Harry S Truman lineage, especially the Doniphan/Shipp portion. There are literally hundreds of trees out there that tie this Elizabeth Doniphan into the Shipp lineage. Working with some of the other profile managers in this lineage, I now believe that (1) Thomas married a woman named Elizabeth, (2) Another Elizabeth Doniphan did marry a Richard Shipp many years later, (3) This Elizabeth married only Stephen Hansford. I have used the Truman Library assets and Tyler's Quarterly Historical and Genealogical Magazine.
Any one with additional information, I would appreciate it!
