Biography
Elender died in 1787 in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.[1]
Research Notes
In William Irwin's will he names his wife as Elender. In his son, Francis', will, Francis names his mother as Eleanor. So are Elender and Eleanor the same person?
Some family trees show her maiden name as Brewster, but the vast majority record her maiden name as Franklin. Is there documentation for either of the surnames Franklin or Brewster?
