It seems that Celestia passed on around 1865. After that date David Reser had a new wife, Rosalie/Rosilla (Minor) born 1844 in Illinois. So, the daughters, Lillian born 1870 was probably from the second wife and Ellen born 1874 was probably fathered by —— Morgan who resided just south of Kansas City and lived with Rosalie and Lillian. Most likely Lillian was the daughter of David and was born after his death in 1869.
Correction; Thomas Broughton was born on 5, January 1797 and died in 1866 at Livingston County Illinois. He is buried in the Broughton Township cemetery in the same county.
