Elizabeth Jordan[1][2] was born about May of 1845 in Alabama.[3][4][5] She died 28 Aug 1936 in Flomaton, Alabama[1] and is buried in Hanberry Cemetery, Escambia County, Alabama.[6]
She married Benjamin D. Franklin in Conecuh County, Alabama on 25 Dec 1866.[2][3]
Elizabeth died in 1936 and should appear as a widow on census from 1910-1930. The only possibility I found which bears further research on the grandchildren connection is in 1930 in Conecuh County, Alabama-
